Selling a home can be tricky… even for experienced home sellers. Keeping up with market changes and overcoming marketing problems can be frustrating, even overwhelming. That’s why timely information is so important for success in real estate. And that’s the purpose of this Monday morning series: “Answers to the Ten Most Common Questions Home Sellers Ask.”

Question #6 – “Does choosing the right agent really make a difference?”

FITS WITH YOU - Contrary to conventional wisdom, all Realtors® are not created equal. The key to choosing the right agent is to find someone whose personal style and methods fit in with your own. Start by getting referrals from friends or by contacting local agents and setting up interviews. Never go blindly with a referral. What works for your friend may not work for you.

Success in real estate involves honest, open, communication between the seller and the Realtor®. That’s why compatibility is so important. I have found, in working with clients over the years, that when we connect personally I am better able to understand their priorities and needs and help them realize their real estate goals. When there is a fit between the home seller and the agent the whole process goes smoother.
