How to Spot a Great Real Estate Agent

Buying or selling a property can be some of the biggest decisions people make in their lives. To make the process even easier it’s important to work with a real estate agent, but not just any real estate agent, a great real estate agent will make it far easier to sell your home in Australia

So here’s what to look for in the best in the business. 

They Have Evidence to Back Up Their Work

Consider checking prior work the estate agent has done. This means looking into their past clients and making sure that everyone has seen success. Often, the real estate agent will not just have happy past clients, they will also have a portfolio to show off the good work they’ve done in terms of numbers. 

They’ve Got a Great Track Record

A great real estate agent will have prior clients, and hopefully, with each of these clients, they will have learnt something new. This track record is something that buyers and sellers should be on the lookout for. 

They Have the Right Knowledge

The best estate agents will also have all the right knowledge to secure you the best deal, whether you are buying or selling. They will know the local market, and the local area enough to be as informed as possible. If you choose the right agent, they will always know what they are doing. This is where it is important to not cut corners, newbies may be cheap, but if they don’t have the right mentors, they may not prove worthwhile. 

 They Follow Up on Their Promises

Has someone ever said they were going to contact you and you didn’t hear from them for days? This is also a problem for people selling their homes to real estate agents. Specifically, this includes checking in with sellers after open houses or inspections and leaving people with their own paperwork. A real estate agent who contacts you and reviews the fine print can be a major asset in a sale.

 They Treat Everyone Like a Buyer

If an agent is selective about who they contact, or generally doesn’t call everyone who attends an open home, they may not be doing everything they can to sell your property. When you host an open house or list a property for sale, you never know who will end up being the buyer. That’s why better salespeople treat everyone in a marketing campaign as potential buyers.
