How to Choose the Best Realtor

By
Real Estate Agent with Team Lally RB-20068

Buying and selling a home is one of the biggest financial decisions most of us will make in our lifetime. You don’t want just anyone to represent you. When it comes time to choose a realtor, there are three key elements to consider.

Experience - The first is the realtor’s level of experience. There are a lot of realtors who are new to the game. Ask for the number of transactions they had last year. Team Lally is proud to have had 135 transactions in 2012 and we’ve helped 97 families this year buy and sell their home. 

Marketing - One of the most important elements in real estate is marketing. Ask your realtor what their marketing budget is. Why is this so important? Marketing is what generates leads and gets great exposure for your home. We spend around $16,000 a month on marketing. 

Team Support - Lastly, ask your agent whether they are part of a team. Real estate transactions involve hundreds of steps with different paperwork and other office duties. You want your realtor to be able to focus 100% on your home. It’s important that your realtor has an assistant or team to help. We have an administration team to help make sure nothing falls through the cracks.

These are three important things to consider when choosing your realtor. If you have any questions or are ready to buy or sell, please give us a call!
