ALL REAL ESTATE AGENTS ARE NOT THE SAME

Anniversaries are generally a time for celebration.

But there’s nothing to celebrate when, as a seller, your property has been on the market for an entire year.

This was the situation faced recently by the owner of an Attadale property. However, this particularly story ended on a positive note after the owner finally appointed Caporn Young to sell their property, following a string of unsuccessful relationships with other real estate agencies. The accepted offer, one of 3 presented to the owner, was actually the first the owner had seen in around 9 months. So, you can image the seller’s relief.

In a competitive real estate market, it’s easy to believe that all real estate agents are the same. But there are definite reasons why some agents consistently outperform others. The particular Caporn Young agent who sold the Attadale property achieved a total of 5 sales in the last week alone and is negotiating on 3 others.

Negotiation skills are critical in modern real estate. So, when interviewing agents to sell your property, make sure you ask them to demonstrate their negotiation techniques.

  1. Before choosing real estate agent you should ask following question to them

    1) How long have you been working in residential real estate sales? Is it your full-time job?

    2) What are your credentials?

    3) How many homes did you sell in the last year? How many homes did you find for buyers?

    4) When I’m selling my home, what types of marketing approaches will you use?

    5) How will you keep me informed about listings or sale of my home?
