Whether you’re a first-time buyer, selling your current home or relocating to a different part of the country, the support of a qualified, knowledgeable REALTOR can alleviate many of your
concerns and ensure a smooth transaction. A professional agent can market your present residence, help you locate the home of your dreams and assist in making your transfer to an
unfamiliar area easier.
To find a trained REALTOR or broker, you may need to look no further than your own neighborhood or home town or C21AB.com. If a well-established brokerage is involved in many
listings and sale, this is a good sign. Speak with some of the agent’s past customers about the quality and integrity of service and performance. Successful real estate agents rely heavily
on customer referrals and will therefore strive to provide the very best in customer service and satisfaction.
Set up appointments to “interview” agents and brokers much like an employer would interview a prospective employee. Inquire about their training, marketing programs and specific
service policies. Also determine how many years of experience they have, the number of listings they have had, and the number of homes they have sold within the past few years. More
importantly, find out how well they know the area. Ask for references, and check them out.
Your goal is to determine just how knowledgeable the agents are. Question them on financing, closing costs and/or local market conditions, depending on whether you’re a prospective
home buyer or seller, to determine their expertise. If they know their stuff, they should be able to answer your questions effortlessly.
If you’re selling your home, learn what they will do if you decide to list with them. How do they plan to market your home? Will they provide you with a market analysis to help you determine
the most effective listing price for your property? Will they supply regular progress reports and assist with negotiations once you’ve received offers?
If you are relocating to a different part of the country, is your agent connected with a national relocation service that will not only expose your present property to incoming transferees, but
assist with your search for a new house?
A qualified real estate agent should be able to answer all your questions and provide you with quality service that is courteous and responsible. Finding the right person may take time and
patience, but when purchasing or selling a home, the selection of a dependable agent should be tops on your list.
