Look for Experience in Your Market

An agent with local expertise understands neighborhood trends, pricing strategies, and what buyers are currently looking for.

Ask About Their Marketing Plan

For sellers, marketing is critical. Ask about:

• Professional photography

• Online exposure (MLS, Zillow, Realtor.com, social media)

• Open houses and targeted advertising

Check Communication Style

You’ll be in close contact during the process. Make sure the agent is responsive, clear, and easy to work with.

Review Past Performance

• Ask for testimonials or reviews.

• Check average days on market for their listings.

• Look at recent sales in your price range.

Understand Their Commission & Services

Make sure fees are transparent, and compare what’s included — full-service support, staging advice, negotiation skills, and more.

Trust & Personal Fit

Ultimately, you need an agent you feel comfortable with — someone you trust to represent your best interests.
