Why Going Solo on Your Home Sale Could Cost You

Discover the $73,000 reason to choose expert home-selling partners.

Thinking of selling your home on your own? You might want to reconsider. Here at Northfork Realty, we understand the hesitation—perhaps you've had a negative experience with a brokerage, or you're wary of brokerage commissions. Let us share why partnering with us at Northfork Realty could be the game-changer you didn't know you needed.

First off, it's about the experience and the system we have in place. Unlike traditional approaches, our model ensures that our brokers are never placed in a position to be rejected, keeping you, the client, at the forefront of every transaction. Our strategy? Attraction over pursuit. We provide valuable information, enabling you to make informed decisions without feeling pressured.

Now, let's talk numbers. Recent statistics from a December 2023 Orchard.com article revealed a compelling argument for using a brokerage. On average, homeowners selling independently netted $310,000, whereas those who partnered with real estate brokers garnered $405,000. That’s a staggering $73,000 net benefit, even after commission fees.

Considering that 88% of buyers work with brokers, selling on your own significantly narrows your pool of prospective buyers.
