HOW TO HIRE A GOOD AGENT
How do you hire a good agent who meets all the criteria and has the right qualities to find you the house you want and need? The first step to finding a good agent is to contact one. Start by checking on-line reviews or talking to family, friends and neighbors about who they've used and about their experiences with that particular agent. Doing an interview will help you find the agent you are looking for. The purpose of your interview should be to check the qualifications and personal attributes, of the agent. Do you feel comfortable and confident with their ability to help you accomplish your real estate goals. Do they have positive feedback from previous clients? Are they new to the job, or a long-time veteran?
