What to Look For in A Good Real Estate Agent

Category: Real Estate  |  Permalink

Published: Tuesday, February 09, 2010

If you are currently looking to buy your first home, you are definitely going to want to find a real estate agent you feel comfortable working with. It all comes down to what you want. You can call each realtor you're interested in and ask them flat out what they have to offer you that others cannot. There are a few things you should definitely know before you sign on with them.

Things to Look For

  • Experience - find out how long they've been in the real estate business, what kind of training they've had and even the number of sales they participate in. The more experience they have the more knowledge they'll have as well.

  • Skill - How well does your real estate agent know contracts? Are they familiar with all areas of their job, like title, inspections, appraisals, negotiation, and any other technical areas? Are they up to date on the latest law and technology changes? Basically, make sure they know what they are doing.

  • Market Knowledge - If you are looking for a home in a particular area, be sure your real estate agent that knows that specific area inside out. They should be familiar with comparable home listings and other recent inventory listings in the neighborhoods you are interested in.

  • Integrity - Go with your gut instinct. If the real estate agent you are working with seems eager to make a quick buck, look somewhere else.

  • Good Work Ethic - You want to work with a real estate agent that returns your calls promptly, schedules showings and home visits around your schedule and aren't pushy. They should be sensitive to your situation.

  • Resources - What sort of resources can your real estate agent offer you to aid you in your decision making process? Website? Good relations with mortgage brokers?

  • Detail Oriented - With so many details to juggle, be sure your real estate agent is on top of all of the little things.
