Choosing a Realtor
December 19, 2009
There is no right way to choose a Realtor. My own personal bias is by referral but it is a very individual thing. Whether you interview 5 or go with the one your friend uses you should feel comfortable in their presence, be able to speak freely and have confidence in their ability. It is a good idea for both Realtor and Client to be frank about expectations at the beginning. Spend some time just talking. Do you feel at ease or do you feel pressured? Are you comfortable asking questions? Do they seem to know the Market? Do they spend time explaining things? What are your expectations? What are theirs? You are setting out on a journey with this person that may be brief but could last months to years – it is a good thing if you feel a mutual respect from the beginning.
Because it matters…
