We tried selling our house in the before times using a realtor. Even then I didn’t really see value in it. Don’t get me wrong, yes there is SOME value in even just handling the paperwork, but not $20k or $30k worth of value. They just hired a photographer for like $100 to take pics and then listed it on Zillow and such. Didn’t really seem like they did much else. When someone would want to see it we would have to clean it all up and prep it for them to show and just based on the few things I saw they didn’t do much “selling”. Needless to say at that time the house didn’t sell after a couple of months and we decided at that point not to sell, but in this insane market, seems like an even worse value proposition.
In fact it seems like a market ripe for the picking by some clever real estate attorneys to market some kind of DIY/hybrid package. You find the buyers and they handle the paperwork/legal stuff to make sure it’s all correct and charge some flat fee.
