How far will your Realtor go to act in your best interests?
- If a $300,000 property meets your needs, but you are qualified to purchase at $415,000, will your agent encourage you to consider that listing? Will you even learn about it?
- How will your Realtor counsel you if you considering selling your house, but you are uncertain about the timing? Will you get unbiased advice about the possibilities of delaying your sale?
- When considering an offer price, how hard will your agent work to get you the best (lowest) price? Will you have research of comparables available for your consideration?
- Will your Realtor advise you on the merits of planning for a future purchase, rather than strain your current financial ability?
If you answered "yes: for each of these questions, good for you. You may have an advocate Realtor working for you.
I say "may" intentionally. Pay attention to the degree to which your agent pursues your best interests.
When your agent clearly works hard for your benefit without concern of their personal gain, you clearly have an advocate. That's Integrity!
Congratulations!
