Whether you are planning to buy or sell a house, you need a great Realtor® by your side. There are many agents out there, and some are more qualified than others, so you need to know what to look for when comparing professionals. The qualities below are the trademarks of an excellent real estate agent.

What to Look for in a Realtor

1. Local Knowledge

A top agent knows the local area like the back of their hand. They should care enough to monitor the real estate market and familiarize themselves with the neighborhood. They can give you details on property values in different sections of town as well as information on the school districts and nearby amenities. This will help you target the right buyers if you’re selling or find the perfect location if you’re planning to buy a house.

2. Dedication

Your Realtor should be dedicated to their work. They should be a full-time agent, not someone who works as an agent on the side. If they have years of experience, you know they have the knowledge needed to effectively represent your best interests.

3. Communicative

The real estate sale or purchase process is complex, so you need someone who will stay in touch with you the entire time. They should answer any questions that you have about their services and what to expect. They should also have stellar customer testimonials that will attest to their effective communication.
