Choosing the right realtor can seem like a hard decision. Whether you have never used a realtor or you just aren’t sure of who to trust, these tips can help you decide on someone who best fits your lifestyle.

  1. Choose someone with local expertise. It’s always important to look for someone familiar with the area in which you are buying or selling, this way you can utilize their market experience.
  2. Credentials and real estate experience. Experienced realtors have navigated various market conditions, developed negotiation skills through hundreds of transactions, and built networks with other professionals in the industry. Their expertise helps avoid common pitfalls, accurately price properties, and efficiently handle unexpected issues that arise during the buying or selling process. 
  3. Read reviews and ask for referrals. Reviews and referrals give you real-world insight into what it is like to work with that person. A good realtor will have positive reviews, both online and in-person.
  4. Trust your gut. Sometimes people just don’t click. There is nothing wrong with trusting yourself and going with someone different.
