When the time comes to sell your home, there are several things that you can do to make the process as smooth as possible and to insure you receive the maximum amount for your propoerty. The most important decision you will make in the sale of your home is the Realtor you choose. We have been helping people in the South Sound area sell their homes since the mid 70's. Our experience in the area and our enduring commitment to our clients will help you insure you will get the most for your home. Here are some points to consider when choosing your realtor:
Find someone you feel comfortable with.
If you don’t feel you can ask questions or go to your Realtor, you have the wrong Realtor.
Examine the Local Market
Your Realtor should show you research to back up any recommendations. This includes information about recent sales, current listings and recent expired listings in your neighborhood.
Choose a local Realtor.
He or she will know your area better than an outsider, will be seen as a source for people looking to relocate in your neighbourhood, and will get better co-operation from other agents. It is likely that any amount you might save by having a friend or relative from outside the area serve as your Realtor, will be lost in their lack of knowledge about the very specific local market.
Learn the Process.
Ask the Realtor to show you what will be done to market your home. Consider the office and company support available to him or her as well as the initiative and professionalism shown by the individual.
Listen to Experience.
Look for a Realtor who tells you what he or she knows from experience in the market, and not what they think you want to hear. Flattery may sometimes get the listing, but it doesn’t sell the home!
