2. Why Should You Depend on an
Ebby Halliday, REALTORS Associate ®
When Selling Your Home?
Agents are more likely to sell the home than the homeowner. In the U.S., 90 percent of homes
are sold by real estate agents; only 10 percent are sold by homeowners.
Agent-listed homes sell faster. The average agent-listed home sells in 4.5 months, but the
average “for sale by owner” takes 7.4 months.
The real estate agent streamlines the home-selling process. Networking, referrals and an extensive database
of clients and available properties make an extremely effective selling combination. The rest of the time,
other networking agents complete the sale.
Don’t forget the time and expense for advertising, marketing and showing the property,
followed by buyers and contract negotiations. Then there is the final coordination of all
the details of the transaction, such as appraisal, financing, inspections and any repairs,
through the pending and processing period to the actual closing of the property. These
are all critical and time-consuming requirements that your real estate agent does for you.

8. Seller’s Disclosure Notice
Texas state law requires sellers of residential property to provide a Seller’s Disclosure Notice to any prospective buyer,
and makes the seller responsible for full disclosure of items or conditions that could effect a buyer’s decision to
purchase.
If there are now or have been in the past problems or repairs and you know of them, you must disclose them to any
prospective buyer. Disclosure should be made before an offer to purchase is written.
A blank Seller’s Disclosure Notice is included for your use. It must be completed, signed and dated by the seller and
furnished to any prospective buyer. The form must be updated if changes occur during the listing period.
The Top 7 Problems
• Foundations
• Water Penetration
• Termites
• Roof Problems
• Asbestos
• Septic Tanks
• Repairs
Exemptions to Providing
the Seller’s Disclosure Notice
Sellers may be exempt from
providing the notice if they are:
• selling pursuant to a court order
• a trustee in a bankruptcy
• a lender selling at foreclosure
• transferring to a lender after foreclosure or deed in lieu
• a fiduciary in the administration of an estate, guardianship, conservatorship or trust
• a co-owner selling to another co-owner
• selling to a spouse or a direct descendant
• spouses transferring pursuant to court order
• selling to a governmental entity
9. Pre-Sale Home Inspection
Surprise! It can be great fun at a birthday party, but not when it may delay or threaten the sale
of your property!
Surprises such as a hidden water leak can result in unseen wood damage, or require bathroom repairs.
Could there be termites? A crack in your heating unit? Is the electrical system in your home up to today’s
code requirements? Are there little things that need attention like a cracked window pane, drippy faucet
or chipped tile?
Having your own home inspection takes the surprise out of the picture for the buyer. It also allows
you the advantage of taking corrective action on the needed repairs so that when the buyer’s inspector
examines your property he cannot make them an issue.
If there are problems, you’ll have time to get competitive bids at regular rates . . . rather than
paying overtime to meet a closing deadline that may be just a couple of days away.
Disclosure of the condition of your home also can protect you by reducing the chance of
post-closing problems.
A pre-sale inspection is something to which you may want to give some thought!

28. Why You Need a Real Estate Professional
There are many pieces to a real estate transaction that must be put into place to reap the final rewards of a
closed sale. Marketing a home to the buying public and/or looking for a new home is an involved process in itself,
plus coordinating and understanding all of today’s legal requirements of transferring title in a real estate sale.
Consider these questions:
• Who will complete the contract forms, negotiate the offer, and look out for YOUR interests?
• The eight-page contract – and any addenda – contains the agreement of the buyer and the
seller, and states the representations and promises to be performed by each of the parties.
• Is earnest money needed? How much?
• What happens to the earnest money?
• What if the earnest money check does not clear for payment?
• What if the buyer changes his mind after signing the contract?
• Why is there an option period?
• How much should the option fee be?
• How many and what kind of inspections should be performed?
• What are the time limits for all inspections?
• Once the property has been inspected, what are the parties’ choices?
• What financing options are available?
• How does a buyer become qualified and approved for a home loan?
• What if the buyer is not qualified for a loan?
• What if the buyer does not have enough money to close?
• What if the buyer’s credit report reveals credit issues?
• How long will it take to obtain financing?
• What options are available for obtaining the best interest rate? Will there be points?
• What happens if the lender cannot provide the interest rate stated in the contract?
• How much are the closing costs?
• What if the lender’s appraiser does not substantiate the value of the property?
• What if the lender requires repairs?
• Who will pay for these repairs?
• How will the repairs be made?
• What if the lender rejects the property?
• What if the buyer’s loan verifications are not returned?
• What if “conditional” approval is issued and the conditions cannot be met?
• What if the lender does not approve of the survey?
29. Why You a Need Real Estate Professional page 2
• What happens if flood insurance is required?
• What about easements on the property?
• What if the loan is not approved within the time stated in the contract?
• What happens if a title commitment is not issued to the lender?
• What if the title search discovers title problems?
• What if hazard insurance cannot be found for the property?
• What happens if the buyer objects to exceptions in the title insurance coverage?
• What happens if the lender objects to exceptions in the title insurance coverage?
• What happens if the closing date is not met?
• What if the buyer is unable to provide information that is needed?
• What if the loan documents are not acceptable to the buyer?
• What if the loan documents are not acceptable to the buyer’s attorney?
• What if the loan underwriter has requirements?
• What if a termite certificate is required?
• What happens if the lender delays the closing?
• What if the loan is not timely funded?
• What if the loan documents and closing papers are not prepared in time
for the closing date?
• What if the buyer and seller disagree about the closing costs charged
on the closing statement?
• What if the buyer wants to move in prior to signing the closing papers?
Prior to the seller receiving his monies from the closing?
• What if the buyer’s lock-in interest rate expires PRIOR to the closing?
• What about residential service contracts excluded items of coverage
after closing?
• What if the buyer objects to closing because of his walk-thru?
• More seriously, what if the buyer’s home fails to close and their loan was
contingent upon selling their home?
• What if the seller needs a lease-back after closing?
Associates are trained and qualified real estate professionals who take pride in their ability to
coordinate and move a real estate transaction from the listing, marketing, and contract negotiating
and pending process to a SUCCESSFUL CLOSING!
30. How to Choose Your
Real Estate Sales Professional
Look for a real estate sales professional who has the REALTOR® symbol.
Holding a real estate license does not make someone a REALTOR®. A REALTOR® must pledge
to uphold the REALTOR® Code of Ethics, always placing the client’s interests above all.
Look for a REALTOR® who will establish an agency relationship in writing.
Loyalty, obedience, disclosure of all material facts, confidentiality, a duty of accounting and the
use of reasonable skill and care are required in an agency relationship.
Look for a full-time professional.
The marketplace constantly changes, and staying abreast of the market, financing, and legal issues
requires full-time attention, as well as continuous education.
Look for a local company that has a fine reputation within the industry.
Select a firm with cooperative involvement in every aspect of civic life, with memberships and
volunteer work in Chambers of Commerce, adopt-a-school programs, service leagues, Rotary,
friend of the arts, and more.
Ask questions to help you determine the knowledge and qualifications
of the salesperson.
Does the salesperson appear to have good listening skills? Does the salesperson pay attention to
detail, have a high level of patience, and seem willing to research the market?
Talk with friends, neighbors and co-workers who have recently bought or sold
a home.
What kind of service did they receive? Would they select the same REALTOR® again?
Ask for references from former buyers or sellers.
Ask the REALTOR® to share with you the services they will provide to you in the
home-buying or selling process.
