When hiring a Realtor, you’ll want to make sure they are the best qualified partner to help you reach your real estate goals. It pays to ask the right questions. Here are some of the questions you should be asking when it’s time to sell your home.

What are the current market conditions that might impact my sale?

The real estate market is always changing. What is true in one city may not be true in another city nearby. The market is local, and an agent who knows the local market conditions is important. They will be able to tell you which homes you will be competing against for a buyer’s attention, and what has sold recently that may impact your sale.

What kinds of marketing will be best right now?

Different conditions call for different strategies. A good Realtor will be able to tell you where the buyer’s eyeballs are, and where they are most likely to find your home. Your Realtor should also be able to tell you what kinds of marketing strategies will suit your home best.

What will I need to do to prepare?

Selling your home is a team effort. There are things you’ll need to do to prep the house for sale. A good Realtor will be able to give you a list of things you can do in advance to maximize your sales result.
