How to choose the best real estate agent for the very important job of selling your home

There’s a lot of hype and misinformation out there, mostly offered up real estate agents themselves, about how to go about selecting your real estate professional.

For most people the sale of the family home is the largest financial transaction they’ll take part in during their lifetime. Every property, every seller, every buyer, and every financing technique can be unique. Yes there are commonalities, but, based on my experience, no two sales are ever exactly alike. Do a poor job selecting your real estate professional and the chance of loss is great, do a good job and the chance of loss is minimal (our Agent Selection Guide contains all the tools you’ll need to interview, select, and hire the best agent for your situation).

One of the best ways to see what an agent will do…is to look at what they’ve done…according to the National Association of Realtors 77% of all agents sell less than 4 homes and make less than $30,000 per year…half don’t make $20,000…when you’re hiring a real estate agent or company to market your home, make sure you hire an agent who has a proven track record of success because that’s the best way to know if they have the experience and financial resources to fully market your home to expose it to every possible buyer so that your home gets sold…that is a key point.

The reward for working with an experienced real estate agent who consistently sells a large number of homes each year is simple-- no more struggling to come up with marketing ideas, no more guessing about what will or won’t work…less stress, less exposure to liability, more customers, a shorter time on market, and a better home selling experience all the way around.

The Benefits of Selecting an Experienced Real Estate Agent

EFFICIENT and RESPONSIVE SERVICE
top agents typically employ expertly trained and efficient support staff which means they have MORE time for you and more time to do what you hired them to do -- sell

WORRY-FREE SALE
top agents are meticulous planners, highly systemized, every “i” is dotted, every “t” is crossed, more peace of mind for you so you can finally relax…

SHORTER SELLING TIMES
top agents spend more marketing and advertising dollars than lesser agents, creating more DEMAND for your home, resulting in a short selling times

MORE MONEY-MAKING OPPORTUNITIES
top agents are well schooled in negotiating contracts, often possessing secrets and tactics that get you from a negotiation to a sale more often

Follow this advice you will improve your chances of satisfaction and success when you sell your home.
