Selling Primary Home with Redfin
My neighbor who is listing his home with a local realtor told me "pick any other brokerage firm as long as it's not Redfin. They don't have the connections to sell your home at as good of a price." I'm a bit skeptical of his comment. As the seller's agent, what does it matter? If the home is staged, listed on the MLS, does it really make a difference which brokerage I go with? I've already got a good idea of my home's worth and am not concerned with the valuation part of it. Total commissions on Redfin are 3.5% in my area, seems like a good deal. Any drawbacks to listing my home with Redfin?
