A good real estate agent will have the experience to get you through what may be the most important transaction of your life, buying or selling a home. Finding one that suits your needs is a task that should not be taken lightly. Ask your friends for referrals.
Referrals are the foundation of any good real estate business.
Find someone who has recently had a successful transaction or ask an office to provide you with recent clients with whom to speak with. Credentials are a visual sign that the sales agent has taken some additional courses and has experience. A CRB is recognized industry wide as a symbol of excellence in professional achievement in the field of management. Also determine if the agent is a member of the Nati o nal Association of Realtors. If you're looking for a real estate agent to list your home, be wary of anyone who suggests he or she can get an unreasonably high sales price.
