This week we are running down the most important questions to ask anyone that will represent you on the sale of your biggest asset. These are 10 questions when interviewing the real estate agent that will sell your home.
I want you to know how they should answer every one of these questions so you know you’re in good hands.
-
Are you full-time?
-
Are you an expert in the local market
-
Do you have a support staff?
-
How many homes have you sold in the last 12 months?
-
How long have you been an agent?
-
Do you actually have a marketing plan? Are you going to market my home?
-
Do you have buyers looking for a home like mine?
-
How much do you charge and why do you charge that?
-
Will they be working with you or a member of your team?
-
Do your research — read their reviews.
