Our friend Debbie has written an insightful piece on choosing an agent.  We agree!  It's far more important to select agent who will listen and is competent rather than how old or how young the agent is.

Should You Choose An Old or Young Agent?

Realtor A member of the National Association of RealtorsIn Clarksville TN and in other market areas, there is an abundance of real estate agents to choose from.  First there is a difference between just being licensed as a real estate agent and being a Realtor. A Realtor is a member of the National Association of Realtors and subscribes to a higher professional standard and follows the Code of Ethics. Real Estate agents that are not Realtors, are not held accountable to these standards. So first, select an agent that is a Realtor to represent you.

Next is the question Should You Choose An Old Agent or Young Agent? Age shouldn’t be a determinate in selecting your agent but other things should.

Select an agent that:Should you choose an old or young agent

4.      Is a full time agent and is affiliated with a reputable company.

5.        Uses technology and is willing to try new ideas    and approaches.

9.      Has a track record of successful sales and happy clients.

Jeanne and Ralph, Thanks for the reblog on this post. We think about age but don't often talk about it so I threw it out there.

Jeanne and Ralph, hmmm. I know some agents both young and old I wouldn't want to work with - and I know young and old agents who are great! The important part is get an agent who is all the things you list!
