FINDING THE RIGHT AGENT TO SELL YOUR HOME.
Good Agents know how to market your home and will do so out of their own pocket for you.

what else should I ask you that I need to know?
This is the most important question to ask. How the agent answers this question can help you get a sense of whether or not you can build a trusting relationship with this person. Do they take their time and make sure you understand everything or are they annoyed and anxious. It’s important to feel comfortable and secure with their knowledge and skills. A good agent knows how to listen. how to advise you, and how to ask the right questions to find out what they need to know to better serve you.
