The Listing Agent

The Seller’s Agent

 

The Listing Agent (also known as the seller’s agent) is the realtor that lists the home and then works with the seller to ensure that the property sells at the highest price possible.

Here Is What The Listing/Seller’s Agent Does

The Listing Agent works with the Home Owner to list the house, and make sure that the seller’s rights are protected and that the home brings the maximum value when it is sold.

The Listing Agent

These are a few of the areas that a listing/seller’s agent can assist in:

It is not enough to just get the sign in the yard and onto the Multi-listing service. There are a number of items that homeowners often overlook. That is where the seller’s agent comes in. The Seller’s Agent will:

      • Evaluate your home by touring the property with you
      • Provide feedback to help you best prepare your home to be listed for sale
      • Perform a detailed market analysis to establish current market value
      • Once you are ready we will sign listing contract
      • Complete the listing by adding high quality photos and full property description
      • Enter the listing into the Brokers Listing Cooperative, making detailed information available to over 7,000 cooperating Realtors within central Indiana
      • Install the ”For Sale” sign on property

The Listing Agent also is responsible for:
