In today’s age of technological “savvy”; Internet intelligence and overall increased consumer knowlege, one of the most intelligent decisions a Buyer or Seller of real estate can make, is to INTERVIEW YOUR REALTOR!
Prior to giving anyone (representing) him or herself as a “Realtor”, any of your pertinent business information, you should bare minimally be able to obtain the following information from the “Realtor” you are considering hiring:
- The Realtor is knowledgeable about your neighborhood and sales stats;
- The Realtor has done basic research on the sales history of your home;
- The Realtor should be willing to commit to agreed upon deadlines regarding updates and communications of the status of your home;
- The Realtor has win-win negotiation skills;
- The Realtor understands and abides by the Code of Ethics and Standards of (NAR) National Association of Realtors;
- The Realtor is an active member of at least one Board of Realtors group;
After a Buyer or Seller is comfortable with the answers and credentials of a Realtor being considered for hire, then, and only then should a Buyer or Seller, be willing to sign on the dotted line, with YOUR REALTOR, STANDING BY YOUR SIDE.
