Offer a bigger commission.
I touched upon this subject in Home Selling Tip #21 but I’ll expand upon it here.
Depending on how desperate you are to sell your home, you may want to offer any Buyer’s Agents a bigger commission than you had first planned. To make it clear, there is no set commission but you’ll generally see the commission for a Buyer’s Agent listed as 2.8% of the selling price. However, in these tougher home selling times, some sellers are starting to offer more to entice agents to bring buyers to see your home. When you consider that the commission for selling a HUD home is around 5% it’s probably not a bad idea to sweeten the pot on your home at least a little.
