Why Choose Ray White?
Choosing a real estate agent to help sell or rent your home is one of the biggest decisions you will ever have to make. But how do you know what to look for? The best agent is not necessarily the one who quotes the highest price for your property or who offers the lowest commission. These are common pitfalls that people make in the selection process and end up disappointed with the price their home sells for. Ultimately you need to find a real estate agent you trust and have a good rapport with, who will help navigate you through the confusing world of real estate, has a high level of expertise, who will keep open communication between you and prospective buyers, who keeps your best interests at heart throughout the entire process and who ensures a low-stress experience. How do you check the right real estate agent meets these criteria? The best way is to interview the real estate agent and ask them some simple questions.
These questions are designed to answer the key necessities to a great real estate agent. Ultimately, you want someone with experience and skill, who is capable of selling your property. However, you don’t want someone who is taking on too many properties at the one time because this could detract from the amount of time they have to spend on your property and you don’t want to have any missed opportunities because your agent is trying to multi-task too many properties. You want to ensure they have a good knowledge of the local area so that they can compare property prices in the past and value your home at the best price. Also, they need to be aware of your home’s features list such as proximity to local parks, schools etc. which assists in showcasing your property.
You also need to gain an understanding of the real estate agents personality in order to assess how you will get along and if you will be able to collaborate effectively with them. Developing a sense of the person is important because you are going out on a limb and putting great faith in their skill and integrity that they will try their hardest to attain the best price for your property. You also want to ensure your agent is organised and takes attention to detail, contracts are edited and ready at open for inspections, they manage marketing campaigns, they negotiate with buyers on time and get back to you quickly. Are they committed to working outside of work hours to put in the extra effort to sell your property? Will they reply to your emails of inquiries? These simple things separate a good agent from an excellent one. Ultimately, you want to find the real estate agent who will go the extra mile for you and who treats you with extra care and not just as another listing.
