[5-DayForum] 5 day in tennessee

[Bill Effros]

James,

The biggest advantage is 5-Day Expertise brought to the table.  Beyond 
that, most experience with traditional selling techniques is a 
disadvantage.  They want you to fail, and will repeatedly tell you why 
what you propose won't work.

Many closing costs are often not covered as part of traditional sales 
contracts.  Look at your contract.  Since most people typically fail to 
do this, they are often surprised at the number and amount of payments 
they are required to sign off on at the closing.  Most sellers just sign 
papers and never notice that they amount they actually put into their 
pockets is substantially less than the selling price less 6% to the 
broker.  If costs mentioned on this Forum are not specifically mentioned 
as covered in the contract, ask your broker to provide a full accounting 
of costs not covered.  They are required to provide this information.

In your case, you want to get completely out of your contract, and you 
want to be able to sell to people who may have seen your home previously 
without making any payment to the broker.  Ask your broker if any of 
these people is willing to make an offer for your home, right now, 
before you run your 5-Day Sale.  If you get a good offer, take it.  If 
not, sever your ties with your broker, and pay closing fees only to the 
people who perform the services.
