Are you considering getting a realtor? It's important to get one with good qualities. But it can be hard to know exactly what those qualities are.
We're here to help you identify what to look for. Read on to learn more.
They Are Honest
While this could apply to nearly every field, it is very important in real estate. You must know that you can trust this realtor. There can be no doubts. They should be honest about what is on the market or what your house could go for. You don't want to find out later that they cut corners or withheld information. This is a critical thing – be sure to read reviews about these realtors.
They Are Tenacious
You don't want a realtor who gets discouraged easily, especially if there is a lull in the housing market. They should be out there always working for you and trying to get results. It's all about work ethic here. Another sign of this tenacity is that they are doing it in an intelligent way - working smarter and not just harder. They will do whatever it takes … ethically … to get the job done. That will lead to the job being done right.
They Have a Good Network
You also want a realtor who has contacts that they can regularly tap. This network could be made up of other real estate agents, brokers, and even appraisers and inspectors. This way, they could bring them all together to help make things go smoothly for you. They could even find a good mortgage loan officer who could help you get the rate that you want. Their goal should be making sure that you are able to get the home you want or sell it for the price that you want.
They Try to Solve Problems
Things happen when you are trying to buy or sell a home. Issues crop up all the time. You want a realtor who, when seeing one of these things happen, doesn't panic but calmly thinks of a solution. You want them to say, "I got this" instead of "Oh no!" That mindset will then give you the confidence to follow what your realtor suggests. While problems can seem to be inevitable, a good realtor can make sure the solution seems as predetermined.
These are just a few qualities that you can look for when you search for a realtor. Once you find one, the whole buying or selling scenario can go smoothly.
