Do you remember all the emotions that came when buying your first home? Excitement, uneasiness, and jitters may have been a few of the many feelings that came along with the home buying experience. Well, get ready to feel them all again if you are planning to sell your Omaha, NE home.

One way to calm the nerves and to ensure the home selling process goes as smoothly as possible is to hire an experienced listing agent. In today’s blog post we are going to be discussing a few things you should know about choosing the right listing agent and a couple of questions to ask before they come on board. Let’s dive in: 

First, let’s talk about what a listing agent is and what they do for a seller. A listing agent, also commonly referred to as a selling agent, is a real estate professional who helps the homeowner get the most money for their home and helps to find the most qualified buyer. They handle a number of tasks including marketing the home, vetting potential buyers, conducting showings and driving negotiations. The listing agent works in the best interest of the seller and helps them navigate the process from beginning to end. 

How to find the best listing agent in Omaha, NE: 

-Interview a couple of agents to make sure the one you pick is the right fit for you and your needs. If possible, it is best to do this in person. Take time during each interaction to make sure the agent is not only trustworthy but also has a knowledge of the local market and connections in the industry. 

-Are they a certified realtor?  Very important to know as many agents work in real estate but do not have the education or certification as a "Realtor".

-Getting referrals is a great way to vet potential candidates. Hearing another person's experience with a real estate agent can give you a feel for what it would be like to work with them and what you can expect in terms of communication, quality of work, and how they treat their clients. (Check out our client testimonials here!)

-Dig in and verify the experience of a potential selling agent. You can do this by simply searching their name and visiting their website, which will show their previous and current listings and client testimonials. This will give you a better idea of the homes they have sold and how they compare to yours, as well as if they are familiar with your neighborhood. 

Lastly, it is important to be prepared with questions when meeting potential listing agents, so we have listed some questions below that you can use to better familiarize yourself with the agent:

-Are you a full-time listing agent? - This will let you know if this is what they live and breathe each day, or if it is a side gig. 

-What do you think my home is worth? How did you get to that price? - This will help you get a sense of if you are on the same page, especially if you had a price in mind. 

-What would be your marketing plan for my home? - A good selling agent will have a detailed plan of action to promote your listing. This can include things such as 3D virtual tours, open houses, professional photography, broker tours and/or “Just listed” mailers. 

-What are the comps in my neighborhood? - Asking this question will give you a better feel for the agents' knowledge of the area.

-What is your commission rate? - This question will ensure you understand what you will be charged for their services so there are no surprises.

It is no secret that the housing market is booming! If you are looking to purchase a home, chances are you are having to act quickly and are most likely up against many other buyers who are bidding for the same home. 

In today’s blog post we are going to be talking about some facts when it comes to selling your home in Omaha, NE - let’s dive in:

-With more and more families looking to purchase a home in Omaha, NE, inventory remains tight. Sellers are controlling the market and are in a better position than ever. It is not uncommon for sellers to receive competitive offers on their homes, many of which are over asking with a fast closing. 

-Mortgage rates have hit record lows over the last year, mainly due to economic uncertainty from the pandemic. How long will this last you ask? While no one can say for certain, the Federal Reserve is intending to keep interest rates low until the economy steadily improves, which is a big draw for buyers. This means that sellers can expect many eyes on their listing and interested buyers at their doors. 

-First-time homebuyers will be a crucial part of shaping the Omaha, NE real estate market in the years to come. During the pandemic, many people yearned for more space and are opting for a spacious house versus a one-bedroom rental. Millennials are tired of tight living quarters and expensive rent payments, which is why they will continue to be a large part of the real estate market moving forward. 

-While no one knows what the future holds for the real estate market, one thing that will always hold true is that local expertise will always win. Having a knowledgeable real estate agent by your side is a great way to ensure you are getting the most money for your home, no matter what the market conditions look like.

If you are in the market to sell your Omaha, NE home, the process may seem daunting and overwhelming at first. There are a lot of things to consider and clutter to sort through. To help alleviate those unpleasant feelings, we have broken down the selling process into a few easy steps to help you understand the steps a bit more. Let’s dive in:

-Find a knowledgeable and qualified real estate agent that knows the market and will work hard in your best interest. This is one of the most important steps as a great real estate agent will be able to walk you through each step of the process and ensure your home is sold quickly and for top dollar.

-Determine the list price for your home. This is something your real estate agent will be able to help you determine based off current market trends, comps in the area, etc. Pricing your home too high could lead to your house sitting on the market for a while, and an underpriced house will leave money on the table.

-Get your home ready to sell by decluttering, making repairs and staging. You want potential buyers to walk in and feel like they are home. You should strive to make it comfortable, yet depersonalized enough that buyers can picture themselves living in the space. 

-Market and list your home. Most of this process will mostly fall on your real estate agent as they will be the one to list your home on the MLS database. Additionally, they may market your home in other ways such as holding an open house, a broker/agent showing, coordinating professional photographs of the home and posting sale signage in the yard. 

-Show your home. The more potential buyers that come through your doors, the more likely you are to receive an offer. Make sure that your home can be tidy and clean at a moments notice and you are able to leave your home during the showing as to not distract buyers. 

-Review offers that come in and negotiate if necessary. Besides the offer price, other areas to consider before accepting an offer include buyer pre-approval, seller concessions, closing costs, timeline and buyers contingencies.
