Are you interested in know that Is it better to sell my apartment exclusively or use more than one real estate agency?
We have come across clients doubting whether to sell their property exclusively in Barcelona or sell it through different real estate agencies.
There are many fears and doubts about it. An owner might think by making his property available in different real estate agencies in Barcelona that the sale of it will be faster since it will have more visibility. We are sorry to say that this is not always the case.
An exclusive sale or rental is simply a private contract between the real estate agency and the home seller. You authorize the real estate, in this case, Immobarcelo, to sell your house. We can only sell it during the time you decide. This time can be from 3 to 6 months or even a year.
An exclusive contract is usually negotiated for three months. That is the perfect timing to realize if the agency is working with your property efficiently and if you do not like it, you can change the agency after three months without any penalty.
Also, if you sign this contract, you can sell your house in Barcelona yourself, as long as it is not to a client introduced by the real estate agency. But, if the client is someone that the real estate has introduced to you, the real estate is obliged to ask for their fees.
Understandable, right?
Yes, because your property in Barcelona will have priority over other properties. The real estate with an exclusive contract will always offer first your property since they know their effort will be rewarded. Therefore, if you offer your home for sale to different real estate agencies in Barcelona, they will hardly offer your home as the first option, as they will always offer first their exclusive properties. This will make the buying and selling process a little slower.
