 There's an old line from a Marx Brothers movie where
Groucho says, "I'd never join a country club who'd have me
as a member."
And I'm going to suggest that same thought applies to
San Diego CA real estate fees:
The last agent you'd want to hire is the discount broker
or the agent who'd slash his or her fee to get your
business.
Why?
In San Diego real estate, like most things in life, the universal
law of "you get what you pay for" holds true. If the agent
is such a weak negotiator when it comes to his or her own
fee, guess what's going to happen when they're negotiating
$100,000's of YOUR money?
I see it happen every day... Weak Agent or Discount
Broker has a listing. We bring an offer. Their
client gets steamrolled in the negotiations and loses
thousands, while our client makes out like a bandit.
If you need more convincing, consider this:
There's a cost of doing business correctly. San Diego
Real Estate Agents WISH
they made 6% on every home sale. When I represent a
San Diego home seller, after expenses, I net all of 1% for my time and
effort.
Of course if I spent little on marketing, next to nothing
on staff, and scrimped on service, I could charge less.
But that wouldn't save my clients money. It would cost
them money.
So my advice is to remember Groucho's old line...
