While the number of for sale by owner transactions is on the decline, approximately 9 percent of sellers decide to go it alone and forego outside help from a Realtor®. Typically those that go this route have extenuating circumstances, such as already having a relationship with the buyer (which happened in 40 percent of recent FSBO sales, according to National Association of Realtors® data). However, NAR’s 2013 Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers shows that most sellers benefit from the outside help of a knowledgeable advocate when selling their home. Aside from being experts in the field, Realtors® have the time, know the market and needs of the potential buyers, bring an objective and fresh perspective to the seller, understand the complexity of all of the processes involved, and have the ability to attract qualified buyers.  It’s because of these reasons that sellers using a Realtor® tend to get more for their homes, according to NAR’s report.

Let’s look at how many sellers sold their homes with a Realtor in August.

Orange County Real Estate Sales Statistics – August 2014

Orange County saw 88 fewer homes sold in August 2014 than August 2013, a 5 percent decrease. The average sales price increased by 1.5 percent and the median sales price increased by 4.8 percent from August 2013.  Market times increased by 8 days or 15 percent.

Osceola County Real Estate Sales Statistics – August 2014

Osceola County home sales decreased 88 homes, a 14 percent decrease. Prices increased with the average sales price up 9.1 percent and the median price increased by 8.4 percent.  Market Times increased by 5 days compared to August 2013.

Seminole County Real Estate Sales Statistics – August 2014

Seminole County residential sales decreased by 3.6 percent with 26 more homes sold in August 2013. The average sales price increased 4.3 percent and the median price increased by 9.3 percent. Market times increased by 4 days or 7.6 percent.

Lake County Real Estate Sales Statistics – August 2014

Residential sales in Lake County increased with 36 additional homes sold, a 7.2 percent increase. The average sales price increased by 9.9 percent, and the median sales price increased by 12 percent for the month compared to August 2013.  Market times increased by 7 days or 8.1 percent.

Polk County Real Estate Sales Statistics – August 2014

Polk County saw 37 additional homes sold in August 2014 compared to August 2013, a 4.8 percent increase.  The average sales price increased by less than 1 percent, and the median sales price increased by 9.2 percent.  Market times dropped 1 day compared to August 2013.
