The real estate market is sensitive in a tough economy. There is much more supply than there is demand. Buyers are picky, and market conditions allow them to be. When the market becomes challenging, many real estate professionals fail to rise to the occasion. How can you ensure that you’ve signed with the right realtor? Follow these simple tips, and you’ll gain a leg up on the competition…..
· Make sure your chosen Realtor is making the most of his/her marketing tools. Ask to see a list of places your home will appear. If buyers can’t see your home, they can’t buy your home.
· Look at the Realtor’s listings. Are the pictures showcasing the home, or the furniture? It’s easy to take a picture of a sofa or well-made bed, can you see the portion of the room that will matter once those pieces of furniture are removed? Do they give details about the home that would be relevant to buyers?
· Call the Realtor multiple times before you sign. Do they answer or return phone calls?
· Ask the Realtor what they do to earn their commission? If they can’t tell you, they probably aren’t doing much.
In the end, your Realtor should give you competent, relevant information and be able to do a thorough search of the market to find you a suitable buyer or a great home to call your own . Choose your Realtor wisely and let them guide you through the process. Make them earn that commission.
