A Realtor can be a great asset to Buyers and Sellers who will be relocating.

How would you find a REALTOR  if you were moving to another Town or State?

 

  • Would you look at homes on line and reach out to a listing agent of a home you like?
  • Would you just arrive in town and pick one from an ad?
  • Would you schedule a visit and go to Open Houses?

As one of the biggest investments in your life it would be wise to get a Referral to a Professional that will match up to your Real Estate goals.  

A REALTOR who is  Experienced, Connected to their Peers, Active on Social Media. will be your biggest advocate.

Can you imagine wanting to buy your move up home in Southern California and picking an agent on line who has only sold entry level condos?  Would you even know they were not familiar with detached homes and would it really matter?

Yes the agent you call may be happy to work with you but will they be learning on the job as they go or are they familiar with the type of home and community you are looking for? I have met so many buyers who relocate to our area only to find they  have wasted almost all their house hunting time with an agent that did not listen or was not  familiar with where their target area was.

                                                                                                                                                  Time is Precious When Relocating

The buyers end of Frustrated, Stressed and Angry and for good reason.

When you relocate your time is precious and you do not have time to waist!

 

 Remember Not all agents are created equal.

 

This is where a referral from an agent to an agent  can make all the difference.

The agent referring you will take care to find the right type of agent to refer you to. I know when we refer you if we do not know the agent personally we will do a phone interview to help determine their knowledge. We will reach out to our network of agent Friends across the country to get recommendations. We look to find  agents who are the BEST in the area and  type of real estate you are interest in buying or selling.

It costs you no more to work with the best and it could save you thousands so let's find the right  person for you! 

For example I recently received a call from an agent who worked  50 miles South of the Alexandria, Virginia area.  She had a buyer who was interested in finding a home and she felt that she could not offer the level of service she  would want to give them with such a long drive especially on unpredictable I-95.  Northern Virginia Traffic and 50 miles  can be a recipe for long hours on the road and an excellent chance of running late to an appointment no matter what time you leave. This is when a network of REALTORS is invaluable to help service out buyers and sellers.

The agent put a call into me to see if I had time to work with the buyers since I was only 15 minutes from the buyers target area and I knew the area like the back of my hand!  The referring agent knew her clients would be in good hands and would have a  less stressful transaction by referring them to me. The agent introduced the by email and  I immediately called and booked an appointment with them to meet. They expected the process to take some time to find the right home.  It only took  two weeks  and three meetings to find we the home they were looking for. I am happy to say they closed on their home just four weeks after meeting with me for the first time.

 

It this fast paced market we are in this Spring a REALTOR must make decisions based on what is best for the buyer or seller and sometimes that means referring them to an associate that can best service them.

The referral system  works just as well when relocating to or from any other state. 

If you let us know the area you are hoping to Relocate to  and what you hope to find we will be able to put you together with an agent who has a solid track record of sales in the price point and area you are looking for.

Here at TwinsSellingRealEstate.com we have 25 years of Real Estate Experience and have REALTOR friends all over the country. We would be happy to connect you with an agent in your target location. Just give us a call and let us know three things.

1. What is your TARGET relocation date?

2. What State and City are you thinking about?

3. Are you looking to buy or sell or both?

We will then get busy to find you a REALTOR so that you can make a connection with a profession who is ready, wiling and able  to help you with your goals in that area.
