Everyone wants to sell his or her house quickly and get the best deal at the same time. The secret to getting everything you want? Work with a top performing Real Estate agent. Remember, you are hiring the Real Estate agent because of their expertise and services.
You want someone who will work hard for you, but also someone you are comfortable with because you will be spending a lot of time together. Here are some tips that may help you find the best real estate agent and get you into your Parry Custom Home sooner than later.
- An active agent will be current on the market and local and state laws. They will know your current neighborhood and be better positioned to help provide you with unique insight on what is happening with the market and home sales in your area.
- Check to see if your prospective agent has any advanced specialty training to better assist you. Ask if they are an Accredited Buyer’s Representative, which focuses training specifically on buyers, or if they are a Certified Distressed Property Expert that has had special training to deal with short sales and foreclosures.
- While many people start looking online, an agent is there to assist you with setting the price before putting the house on the market based on a competitive market analysis. Ask them how they will market your home. Also, ask if they provide staging and hosting open houses. When the offers start to come in they can help you decide which offer to accept.
- Ask how often you will hear from the agent and make sure that it meets your expectations. Let them know if you expect regular check-ins or only if there is activity.
Hiring a Real Estate agent is not something that most people do often in their lives. Make sure you do your research and hire an agent from a reputable company. You want to know you are getting the best deal possible while meeting your end goal, which is moving into your new home as soon as possible.
