Your best choice in Fairfax might not look like the typical real estate pro, and might not have a brand new car. The great Realtor for you is more concerned with your needs than the agent's needs, knows the fact that you have a choice in agents, and is equipped to handle unique situations when they arise.
Your Realtor Stuart Nesbitt Every purchaser is different. Some buyers love Traditional-style homes. Others do not. Some property hunters are buying a first home. Some home hunters don't plan on selling. Others need to move in 4 years. Every purchaser is unique in the same way, expertises have different personality traits and skills.
Here's my words of advice for digging up the right real estate agent for you when you’re acquiring title to in 22033:
Check out Realtor referrals. — I like Angie’s List because I know that Angie’s List voice verifies each review. You can also see if the agent or brokerage has any awards for client satisfaction.
Speak with a few Realtors — The Realtor should have time to discuss to you. If you pick the most popular real estate agent in Stonecroft, you might find yourself working with a junior associate affiliated with that Realtor. You don't have to exhaust yourself talking to agent after agent, but at least chat with two or three to see who you're most comfortable with.
There should be a certain chemistry between you and your agent. — We all have unique personalities, and that's the way it should be. But when working with someone professionally, if helps if their personality “meshes” well with your own. Interpersonal skills are as important as professional skills.
Ask the potential agent how they search for homes. — When selecting a agent, ask how they identify properties. Some real estate pros have their own preferred listings that they favor. But you want what’s great for you, not what’s perfect for your real estate professional. So make sure the real estate pro is willing to search high and low to find the right home for you. That includes using the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) as well as their own personal network.
Find out more about your representation agreement. — The Commonwealth of Virginia requires all licensed agents to sign a representation agreement before showing properties or having material discussions about a specific home. Be very wary of any agent that is not concerned about getting a representation agreement signed. It doesn't hurt to have a legal counselor take a look at your representation agreement, but usually that's not necessary. The document is pretty straight forward. Some representation agreements describe a rebate paid to the home buyer at closing. (Nesbitt Realty offers rebates.) You'll want to read the fine print to make sure that this rebate isn't pulled away at the last minute.
Nobody works harder than Nesbitt Realty.
