WHY WORK EXCLUSIVELY WITH ONE AGENT?
If you were not feeling well, would it make more sense to go to five different Doctors and tell each of them a little bit about the symptoms you are experiencing or go to the same Doctor five times so he or she can really begin to understand what the problem might be?
Most buyers are not certain what they want in a home. There is a process of discovering what they like and don’t like. When you work with one agent, you allow that person to be part of the discovery process and to understand why something is important to you or why it is not important.
Understanding Market Trends
Choose a agent who is up-to-date on what is going on in the market place. Is the market falling, rising or level? Where is the market compared to last month at this time, or last year at this time and what are the factors which are influencing the market? Is there a big corporate move on the horizon? Is it coming in or going out? Where are interest rates headed. How is the overall local economy shaping up in the near term and in the long term? What is going on in new construction, and how is that going to affect the sales of existing homes.
Granted, nobody has a crystal ball, but an intelligent, well informed real estate professional can shed a lot of light on these issues. Consider working with an agent who is in the business for the long term, REALTORS who would not be hesitating to advise you to postpone a purchase decision if it is not in your best interests, even if it means losing out on a sale at the moment.
Work with Experienced Professionals
After the first few days, it is no fun looking for a house. So, if you are truly motivated and need to buy a home, select someone who will be totally honest with you about the market. Ask questions. Does the agent have a written plan for finding your dream home? Are they full-time and do they have a strong track record? Are they part of a “world class” referral network, are they tech savvy, do they have a Brokers” license? Are they professional, committed, computerized, experienced, equipped, involved, informed, available, prepared, competitive, motivated and honest?
