Cash offer vs listing with an agent
Main Street Realty can list a house on the MLS or buy it as a cash offer. A cash offer is usually less than a fully marketed sale. The cash number is for that house. It is not a formula.
A listing pays the commission written in the listing agreement. This page does not print a commission percent. Neither path guarantees a number of days.
See the city pages for Carrollton, Villa Rica, Bremen, and Douglasville.
