I'm considering selling my house, and want to get an opinion on how to best do it.
A bit about the house:
Dislindered. Beachfront. Between Kite Beach and Encuentro, in Cabarete. Never had a problem with title or security. Reason for selling - don't use it as much as I used to.
Things that I'm tying to figure out
1) Real estate agents. It seem like people just list with multiple agents, as there's no rules about exclusive. The 10% seems high, especially when it doesn't feel like the agencies do much other than show people. Does anyone have an experience with a agency that puts in a solid effort at marketing ?
2) Market timing. With the Russians and Canadians taking a hit on their currency, are the Americans finally buying? I think it was last year that someone told me that only things in the $200K range were selling
3) Vendor mortgage - Are there problems with offering a mortgage to the buyer to make it easier to sell?
Thanks in advance
