presents to you. And be sure
to pay extra attention to how
your property will be promoted online. Why? Because,
according to the NAR, 74 percent of all potential homebuyers today use the Internet as
part of their real estate transaction.
7. Ask agents for references
from their last three clients. If
they hesitate, then maybe
they’ve said a lot without saying a word.
8. Finally, don’t forget to
factor in the personality
“click factor”—that is, make
sure there’s chemistry, and
that the agent you select is
someone with whom you’ll
enjoy working.

Ask each agent for a detailed
explanation as to how they
arrived at the suggested list
price for your home, so you’ll
have the confidence of knowing it is realistically, and competitively, priced to attract
potential buyers.
5. Ask each agent you interview to share their “list price
versus sales price” percentage
vs. the market average; ask
them to also disclose their listings’ average “days on the market” vs. the market average.
6. How your home is marketed will, of course, play a
key role in its sale. So carefully compare the proposed
marketing plans for your
property/home that each agent

their career.
3. Find agents who specialize in your neighborhood and
your specific home value
range. Interview agents with
specific
experience
that
matches your needs and make
sure to ask whether they have
a comprehensive customer
satisfaction plan in place.
Ask these agents what their
customer satisfaction rating is
and whether they will put into
writing—up-front—what they
will do for you.
4. Ask agents for a comparative market analysis: You
need to be sure the agent you
choose does his or her homework and fully understands
the nuances of your market.

Try these timely tips for
selecting the right agent.
1. Avoid the temptation of
letting family members or
friends “give it a go.” Yes, it
would be nice to help a loved
one or friend get their foot in
the door and a commission in
their pocket, but you’re dealing with possibly the largest
transaction you’ll ever make.
You can’t afford to take
chances.
2. Avoid part-time agents,
those who practice real estate
in their spare time. Real estate
transactions are time-consuming, complex endeavors; you
need someone wholly committed to your transaction and

to help them buy or sell a
home.
Based on today’s market
conditions, choosing the right
real estate agent can play a
huge role in determining
whether the buying or selling
process will go smoothly or
not.
The key to avoiding frustration—and not wasting time
and money—is doing your
homework up-front to select
an agent with the experience
and chemistry to best meet
your needs.”
The agent you choose should
be someone who can offer
great advice, counsel and
expert customer service with
attention to details to avoid
SJ03 54336 072606
As the housing market
increasingly shows signs of
slowing, and as record numbers of real estate agents enter
the market, selecting the right
agent is more important than
ever, experts say.
In fact, even the National
Association
of
Realtors
(NAR) points out that 74 percent of sellers and 64 percent
of buyers choose the first
agent they meet – which may
not necessarily be a good
thing.
In fact, according to the
NAR, Americans spend more
time trying to pick out the
right appliances for their
home than they do in selecting the right real estate agent
