The buyer pays, but indirectly also the seller. If a house is worth 300, then with a broker it is only worth 290, because the buyer still pays 290 plus around 5% commission, which totals 300-something. Without a broker, one would probably get the 300 and a bit themselves. At least 299 would probably be possible.
Very nicely summarized. If you now evaluate my idea from this perspective, to simply list the property on immobilienscout without any specific plan: at a price comparable to similar properties in a similar location... then it can’t be that bad. Inform everyone who calls that it is already tentatively reserved without obligation, but you note down their number.
There are also real estate agents who offer below value, simply to make the sale as quick as possible, preferring to give up a few € in commission. They then simply have fewer viewing appointments and thus ultimately much less work.
And what if you go in way too low? The realtor looks at what was recently achieved with comparable properties by himself and colleagues. K.
It is a myth that the realtor strives for a good price (for the seller). The average realtor cares little about setting the price high, as it pays off more for him to sell the property quickly at a low price than to have to manage the property for weeks.
One really can't avoid calculating the whole thing through when I read it like this. Set a price based on the inventory and see what has been paid in the neighborhood. The problem is also that the land belongs to the church and would only be leased again through a hereditary lease. Our neighbor at least got it leased again from the church. So we are optimistic. The broker is then just the guy on site who is supposed to sell the thing.
