Think Before Signing

Choosing the right Realtor is the first step in the right direction in getting your home sold fast. Here is a list of some of the questions you need to ask when interviewing a Realtor:

How many years have you been in business?
How many homes did you sell last year? This year, to date? Can I see proof of that? How does that figure compare with the National Association of Realtors?
What are your professional designations?
Do you offer any guarantees?
Do you have a written marketing plan? May I have a copy?
Do you make your marketing plan an addendum to the listing agreement?
Do you have any testimonial letters from previous clients that I can read?
Can I call some of your past clients?
What type of experience and training do you have in negotiating?
Can I get out of the listing if I am not pleased with your service? Will this be unconditional?
