Choosing the Right Agent
Although technology has dramatically transformed the home buying and selling experience, one aspect of the process remains paramount – choosing the right real estate agent. Buying or selling a home is complicated, so it’s important to select an experienced, trustworthy sales professional who has the expertise to guide you through the entire process.
Well-informed agents know the ins and outs of the local market and have a strong online presence. Most buyers won’t visit a home if it doesn’t have a great online description with highquality property images. Before hiring an agent, look at their portfolio of homes for sale to see how they present clients’ properties, make sure they have a successful sales record in your area and read testimonials from previous clients.

They are also connected to a broad global network, with approximately 92,000 agents in 44 countries and territories, so your listing will be promoted to out-of-state and international buyers, greatly expanding your pool of potential buyers.
It's best to meet with a potential agent in person or via video chat, and ask lots of questions to make sure he or she has what it takes to ensure a smooth home buying or selling experience from start to finish.
