Real estate agents help people buy and sell homes. Agents educate their clients about current market conditions, guide them through each step of the process and make referrals to other professionals, such as home stagers and real estate attorneys. Most agents can represent buyers or sellers. Their particular titles in a transaction depend on whom they're representing in that sale.
Ask friends and colleagues for referrals to find the right one. Look up the agents' websites and online profiles, read about their specialties and experience, and check out customer reviews.
Me personally, I have already closed more than 100 deals. Most of my clients are satisfied with my service. Via word of mouth some have contacted me. My specialty is second house, investment, airbnb let alone residential house.
Licensure requires agents to pass an exam. Check the business card to find out if a particular agent is licensed. Without some sort of experience I would not have passed the exam.
Do you prefer to communicate by text, phone calls or email? Most agents use all three channels. Make sure the agent will accommodate your preferred communication method.
LINE and Whatsapp are available on top of them.
A good agent will set realistic expectations by explaining the availability of listed homes and the level of competition you'll face with other buyers. You don’t have to sign an agreement with the agent you consider. In buying or selling a home, people skills matter as much as real estate expertise.
