Tips On An East Brunswick Realtor

By Enid Hinton


The number of people who claim to be in a position to sell real estate is very high. Among these, there are those who have received professional certification and accreditation. Others are self-taught and others have been mentored. What you need to look for in an East Brunswick realtor is focus, efficiency and the willingness to help you find the right property.

Sellers should start their search by identifying the agents who work within their neighborhoods and making a list of those they would like to interview. These are the agents who will be invited to the residence for the interview. When interviewing, begin by establishing how much these agents think they can get for your residence.

Marketing is an important part of selling any house. As such, you will need to know how this professional intends to carry out the marketing. A good realtor should also be a good marketing agent who is in a position to look beyond the traditional marketing methods that are in use.

Technology has greatly impacted the way business is conducted, in a positive way. Have an agent explain how they have been able to use technology to make sure that they reach a wider audience. You could also look at the website tours presented in their websites.

It always helps to learn about a deal that an agent closed that may have ended up surprising him. Understand what was so different about this deal or what made it stand out from the rest. You can learn a lot about each agent from this information.

It is important to look at the area that each agent has specialized in. If you are selling a condo, you will want to work with someone who has sold condos before. You do not want to work with someone whose specialty is selling starter homes.

Clients should also seek information on how many properties the realtor is currently handling. Even though having a high number demonstrates that clients trusts him, it could also mean that you will be dealing with the assistant. Thus, you will not have all the attention you may desire.

You should not be surprised to learn that the realtor may have certain expectations of you. This will in many cases be in form of activities or tasks he would like you to complete. The tasks are often designed to make certain that your house sells much faster.

It is important for an agent to be able to deal with all kinds of lenders. As you interview each agent, seek to learn of the advice he would provide you were you to be made an offer by a buyer who is using an FHA loan. It will be important to only work with a real estate agent who is able to work with all lenders.

Do not forget to ask about the fees you will have to pay. Agents are paid on a commission basis after a house has been sold. Seek to know how much his commission will be and whether this commission can be negotiated to reflect a percentage that is friendlier to you.
