Does anyone know who sells the most homes in TV, Village Agents or off property MLS Agents?

Do agents for TV make more money selling new instead of resales?

Also, does anyone have an opinion on the new way resales are placed on the TV website?

Our homes (yes two, one at TV and the other in south Florida) are both for sale and I am trying to think of ways to sell at least one or the other. I really thought that our home in TV would sell quickly, due to it being a golf front property and priced right, but no luck so far. Where we are in south Florida, no one is here. The streets are empty and it is HOT.

I know that several people on this board have homes for sale, and several have SOLD (congratulations!) their homes. Just seems like I could do something to help the sale.

I think for re-sale it is about a 50% split between TV agents and all other realtors.

I tracked this for about 3 years before actually buying. What I found (2006 to 2008, may have changed since then) is that VLS got on average of 97% of the sales price where MLS got on average of 94% of the sales price. I could not validate through data that VLS priced more competitively or not. During that time frame VLS sold 57% of the homes, MLS sold 34% of the homes and FSBO sold 9% of the homes. Probably about the same today + or - a % or two.

I don't know the answer on TV agents and how they are paid new vs resale. My guess would be an incentive to sell new over resale, but did not see that in working with them. Showed me both with equal information and time on both.

I do not like the new web site format as well as before, but doubt it makes much difference if someone is actively searching for a home.

Might want to consider some incentives on the home you prefer to sell. Golf cart included, extra $$$ to the agent that represents the buyer paid at closing, something to make buying your home a little more attractive then someone else's.
