How To Find A Real Estate Agent

Fort Erie Real Estate Agent

Whether you’re listing your home or looking to purchase one, your first move should be to identify a real estate agent in your community who can assist with the sale. A real estate agent’s job is to build up a level of expertise on their community and the properties in it.

But who is the best real estate agent? Is it the one who works at the largest brokerage, the one with the most expensive properties, or the one with the biggest billboard? Well, maybe, but those aren’t the things that will determine it.

The best real estate agent is the one who understands your unique situation, listens to your concerns, and matches you with the best property for your specific need. When you need a real estate agent in Fort Erie, give us a call, we would love to work with you.

So how do you find the best real estate agent for you? Your relationship with your real estate agent is an important one. You need to be confident that they know their work and that they have your best interests in mind.

The Internet has made it easier than ever to connect with a great number of real estate professionals. Other than a web search, here are some of the most promising ways to find a great local real estate agent.

Open Houses

An open house gives you the opportunity to meet real estate agents on the job, with no pressure on you. Get their business card and make notes about the agents you meet.

If you’re looking to sell your home, watch how the agent is showing the home at the open house. Are they polite, informative, and knowledgeable? Test an agent’s knowledge by asking questions about important everyday things like utility bills.

Is the agent attentive and putting in work to really make the home stand out?

Track Neighbourhood Signs

Take note of the for-sale signs in and around your neighborhood. Record the day they go up and when they disappear or boast a "sold" banner. If an agent can sell a listing quickly, it means they are skilled at matching buyers with the right home. That’s the kind of agent you want.

Read Locally

Your local community newspaper is often a great way to find not only specific properties for sale in your area, but who is representing them.

Check the real estate ads in your community circular, then check the websites of the agents who are advertising and find out whether they specialize in real estate in your neighborhood.

Ultimately, no matter how you go about finding a local agent who will sell or help you buy a property, you’ll want to spend some time getting to know who is working in your area, what type of property they specialize in, and deciding whether they are a good fit to help with your specific real estate needs.
