The ultimate job of a listing agent is to sell a property for the best price and terms, in the shortest amount of time possible.  A sellers agent also has a duty to protect a sellers best interests.  A top sellers agent will research the market and prepare a comparative market analysis that helps determine the optimal price the property should list for and will sell for.

This is where experience counts!  

The Southeast Texas real estate market is constantly changing.  2024 has seen fewer sales and more properties coming on the market.  This has adjusted market conditions in favor of the buyer.  2024 is the first year in several years that we have had the supply of inventory (number of homes for sale) that we have currently. 

Quote from the Beaumont Board of Realtors

SETX is still in a "buyer's market" at exactly 7 months of inventory.

With 1,880 current active listings in the area, and real estate closings averaging 268 homes sold per month over the last 12 months, it would take 7 months to sell all of our inventory! #RealEstateMath

• An experienced agent will help you avoid overpricing or underpricing your home.
• The right real estate agent will make the selling process as low stress as possible.
