HOW TO GAIN AN ADVANTAGE:

You can gain the advantage simply by hiring a real estate agent. The bottom line is that you have nothing to lose by working with a good real estate agent. There is little risk involved, the cost is worth it, as an agent can help you find a great deal on your home — with a far better chance than doing it on your own. Having a professional real estate on your side throughout the home search and home-buying process is one of the best ways to gain an advantage. A great agent will remind you that you have the power and the upper hand, and will guide you along the way. But first you need to find a great real estate agent — something that will take some research, time, and energy.

HOW TO HIRE A GOOD AGENT: DO YOUR RESEARCH!

A good agent will have specialized knowledge of homes in your areas of interest. They will be informed of everything you need to know about the property. How do you hire a good agent who meets all the criteria and has the right qualities to find you the house you want? It really isn’t too terribly difficult to find a local real estate agent — many plaster their faces and contact information onto sponsored public benches, public buses, and yard signs, not to mention direct mail brochures or postcards as well as online ads everywhere. You need to do your research so that you can cut through all the advertising hype and find the right agent for you. That’s not to say it’s an easy task, however! You’ll need to do research on real estate agents in your area. For example, you’ll need to find agents who are experts in their fields, have plenty of experience working with buyers specifically, have an excellent track record with recommendations and positive reviews, etc.
