Make sure the Realtor you choose is well- versed in all aspects of the Luxury Home Market and has also done Luxury Home Transactions! You may ask, why as a buyer should you look for someone well- versed in being a seller's agent? Excellent question! Knowing the other side of a transaction intimately gives a Realtor better insight into what is happening on both sides of a transaction which will help your agent better negotiate on your behalf on the buying side. Similarly, if you choose a real estate agent who’s also a member of the National Association of Realtors® - one who can legally call him or herself a Realtor®, it will be a bonus. However, ensure they have credentials that are relevant to your need(s).
