Sellers, are you tired of the status quo? 
You don't have to be scared of this real estate market!
Just look for the following qualities when looking for a Realtor to sell your home!
Choose a Realtor that's in the know! It is your job to find and hire the best Realtor out there!
Make it a point to search and find a Realtor that has a heavy internet presence.
Just "Google" their name and see what you find! Are they on the first page? Are they even present?
WHY is that you say? Because at least 85% of buyers begin their home search on the internet!
That is why your agent needs to be internet savvy in this day and age.
Your agent needs to be active on the internet and sellers home information and lots of photos all over the internet.
Your agent needs to have their own website!
It is not enough to just be on Realtor.com!
It is not enoughto just be on the MLS......
It is not enough to just put a sign in the yard!
Your agent needs to post lots of Photos all over the internet. Oh! I already mentioned that....
Your agent needs to have years of real estate and marketing experience!
Your agent needs to be proactive and aggressive!
Your agent needs to communicate with you frequently!
Your agent needs to be blogging!
Your agent needs to constantly be on the cutting edge of technology and not afraid to be different!
Your agent needs to constantly update their education!
Your agent needs to understand "Staging" and tell you what to do to get your home "Show Ready"
Your agent needs to be responsive!
Your agent needs to answer their phone!
Your agent needs to embrace email and respond quickly!
Your agent needs to be a full time Realtor! Find and hire only the BEST in your area!
Your agent needs to have great people skills and great follow up skills!
Your agent needs to know of at least 50 websites on which they they can market your home!
Your agent needs to "partner" with you and you need to work together as a team to get your home SOLD!
Sellers, Don't settle - It is up to you as the Seller to find the best Realtor in your area!
