\nChoosing the Right Realtor\u00ae Can Make a HUGE Difference in Your Home Buying or Selling Experience!<\/h1>\n
Almost everyone knows a real estate agent.\u00a0 However, all agents are not created equally.\u00a0 This is easy to tell when you compare an agent\u2019s experience to others, compare how long they have been in the business, and most importantly how many closed real property transactions they have to their name.<\/p>\n
Moreover, a seasoned real estate agent will provide a list of references \u2013 probably with dozens, if not hundreds, of names, phone numbers, and contact information readily available for prospective clients to contact. \u00a0It is critical to check references to find out objectively how well the agent performed, to find out how accurate the agent was in their projections, costs, and estimated selling price, and to find out if the agent did what they said they would do.\u00a0 An agent with a multitude of references and hundreds of closed transactions is typically going to be more competent, more prepared, and more likely to achieve the results you desire and deserve.<\/p>\n
