Cons of Buying a House Without a Realtor 

Purchasing a home, whether it be your very first or even your seventh time going through the process, can be a complicated, headache-inducing undertaking. To save on costs, you may be considering buying a house without a realtor. However, without a realtor’s expertise, you are much less likely to find what you’re looking for. Even beyond tricky negotiations, real estate agents can offer knowledge and insight on the home buying process in their specialized area that you just won’t receive elsewhere.

Owning a home in the Las Vegas area can be one of the most rewarding investments of your lifetime—you want to make sure to find the highest quality house in the best neighborhood that fits within your budget and will be sustainable enough to resell in the future. Here are some points to consider before you begin the process of buying a house without a realtor.
 
Endless Paperwork
 
Again, purchasing a home is always a complicated process—you have to make sure you have a clean enough credit report and are able to secure financing. With a realtor, this becomes a lot easier—they’re on hand to guide you through the process, and if you are working with a trusted professional like those at First Federal Realty DeSimone, you can have peace of mind knowing they’re operating in your best interest. Plus, at closing, all you have to do is show up—your agent will prepare all the legal documents already.
 
Not Knowing Your Risks
 
One benefit of working with a realtor is that you can be sure they’re an expert on their area of operation. They know the ins and outs of all the subdivisions in the city or town you’re looking to settle into, offering market predictions you couldn’t find elsewhere. Plus, buying a house without a realtor means going in blind. A house’s history isn’t generally public knowledge—but your real estate agent will know its history, and is required by law to disclose any information that you might not have been privy to if you’re operating solo.
 
More Time Consuming 
 
When working with you, much of a realtor’s full-time job is dedicated to searching for the right house and taking on the negotiating process. You likely have a full time job or a family to take care of yourself (or both!)—could you imagine taking on the process of purchasing a house on top of that? The time you save researching by choosing to go with a realtor is priceless.
