What Questions Should You Ask Your Realtor
Today I wanted to go over the ten questions you should ask your realtor before you hire them. I have elaborated on the four most important and listed the other six questions below:
1. How many years of experience do you have in real estate? This isn’t saying that young agents won’t do a fine job; however they truly don’t have the wisdom base and knowledge of things that happen on a daily basis.
2. Do you specialize in listing properties or selling properties? If the agent is listing based, the most likely won’t be your best choice. There are many different responsibilities between a buyer’s agent and a listing agent!
3. How many homes have you sold in the last year and how many were sold in my subdivision? The more familiar the agent is with your area, the better it will serve you!
4. How will I be kept informed? Many things happen in the course of a transaction but if there is good communication between you and the agent, that is half the half the battle! Good communication will save you from frustration further down the road.
5. What’s your plan, besides flyers, signs and the MLS to get my home sold?
6. Are you a solo agent or a team?
7. How much is it going to cost me to sell my home?
8. What are my responsibilities while showing and during the transaction? Am I responsible for repairs?
9. Who is my point of contact throughout the process? Do I have someone I can call anytime?
10. What is your marketing budget?
If you have any other questions about finding the right agent, give me a call at (907) 240-2804 or send me an email at dar@darwalden.com. Thanks and have a great day!
