Selling your home is a big decision, and choosing the right real estate agent is crucial to making it a successful one. The right agent can make all the difference in marketing your property effectively, attracting the best buyers, and negotiating a favorable sale. To help you make an informed choice, here are ten essential questions to ask when selecting a real estate agent:
1. Are You a REALTOR®?
Working with a REALTOR® means working with a professional bound by the REALTOR® Code of Ethics, which includes a commitment to protecting and promoting the interests of their clients. REALTORS® are held to high standards, ensuring you receive ethical, client-focused service.
2. What Types of Services Can You Provide?
From listing and marketing your home to handling negotiations and managing the closing process, a REALTOR® can support you at every stage of the sale. Ask your prospective agent to outline the full range of services they offer so you know what to expect.
NCJAR’s success is powered by our dedicated committee volunteers, who help shape our growth, decision-making, and member experience. Now’s your chance to get involved! Choose up to three committees that align with your interests and expertise.
