If your house is priced at $405,000, and a set fee broker can save you $14,000 in commissions, you can now price your house $14,000 lower, thus making your home more attarctive to would be buyers. At a new price of $391,000, more buyers would be inclined to bid on your property as it is now a better value.
Other than the high fees, what do you have to lose? Keep in mind a set fee broker is not a discount broker. Typically, many discount brokers provide less marketing, less exposure. A set fee broker can handle your entire transaction from start to finish. At Help-U-Sell, you are able to participate in the transaction, thus having more control over the process if you wish.
