Another reason to sell your home privately

Is you do dont get roped into taking financial products you don't need.

A good source of income for estate agents is commssion earned for selling financial products such as Mortgages, Life Insurance and Home Insurance, and while they are trying to sell your house, they can also look at other ways of earning extra money from everyone that they come in contact with, be it a buyer or home seller.

So the next time you walk into an estate agents, don't sign up for a product unless you really want to, and make sure it is the right product for you, better still don't give them your details unless you are sure you want to use their services.
