Remember you are hiring someone to manage the marketing of your home. While your agent would love to sell your home there is a 4-1 chance your home will be sold by someone other than your listing agent. Your agent will likely not be the one who sells your home but they will be the reason your home sells. Getting your home sold is my job.

Before you list your home, it is important to do your homework on the real estate companies in your area.
  1. Since nearly 75% of the buyers start their search for a home on the Internet, search the Internet for your local real estate companies.
  2. Review each company's Internet site to see which has the best Internet marketing program. Is it an integrated marketing program designed to drive traffic to your home's page on the Internet?
  3. Speak with each company about their Internet traffic
  4. Talk to people. 9 times out of 10, someone you know has sold their home and can point you in the right direction and provide a credible recommendation.
When choosing a real estate agent, do not be afraid to meet with a few agents. After all, they are competing for your business and this is what makes the real estate industry successful. To be fair and get an accurate comparison, be sure to ask each agent the same questions.

Feel free to ask them the following questions:
  • Will you put your service pledge in writing?
  • How will you mobilize the real estate community?
  • What professional certifications do you hold (ex. Certified Residential Specialist -CRS)?
  • What services will you provide for me as my agent?
  • Do you have an integrated marketing package for maximum exposure?
  • Will my property have a unique Internet address?
  • How will you represent my property?
  • Can you provide a market analysis for my property?
  • How will you determine the price of my home?
  • What is the fee for your services?
  • Can you provide me with a net sheet showing me what I can expect to net form the sale of my home?
  • Explain the paperwork that I need to sign.
  • What is the timeframe for listing my property with you?
