Who is the Best Phoenix Real Estate Agent? That's a term that I'm sure lots of people type into Google when the need arises. I would think that the agents who surface towards the top of the search results really are on top of the heap. Did you know that there are over 30,000 active agents in the metro area that the Arizona Regional Multiple Listing Service covers. That is a ton of people to choose from and you'd think that this huge number would make finding a top agent easy. Well, you know that saying about a needle in a haystack!
How to Identify the Best Phoenix Real Estate Agent
Below are some characteristics that count in today's fast paced real estate market. You may find that some of these attributes speak to you more than others. Just remember, that after you peel away all of the advances of technology and bells and whistles this is still a belly to belly business. What worked 75 years ago still counts today. With no further delay, 7 Important attributes for hiring the Best Phoenix Real Estate Agent.
- Communication: make sure to take notice of the time it takes an agent to respond to your calls, emails, and text messages. What you see now is likely to be a reflection of how they respond when you are working together.
- Market Expertise: Good agents know how to pull data for any community in the valley. Still, some agents prefer to wing it and are not proficient in the research phase of real estate matters. Getting the numbers wrong, even by a few percentage points, could cost you thousands.
- Marketing: Sadly, it doesn't take long to look through the homes listed on the MLS to find listings with crummy photos that look like they were taken on a flip phone while the agent was falling down in a dark room. Image is everything. If your home is not marketed properly it doesn't get the chance it deserves to showcase for the best buyers hunting for a home.
- Negotiating Skills: How can you tell if you are talking to a good negotiator? When you are interviewing prospective agents see if they do a good job of negotiating a commission for the work they do. If an agent's only play to win you over is to dump his or her commission rate then ask yourself "how will this agent do when they are negotiating with agents who are making offers on my property?".
- Passion: Does the agent have excitement and enthusiasm when they speak with you about the business? Do they seem bored? It is important to convey good energy when talking about our business. Lack of optimism is going to shine through in the conversations they have with prospects.
- Prospecting: Does the agent have the nerve to prospect on your behalf? If you are a buyer wouldn't you want an agent who knows about properties before they come on the market? If you are a seller, wouldn't you want an agent who has buyers who are actively looking for property? And wouldn't it be good to know that the agent is talking to his prospects about your home?
- Work Ethic: If your agent is starting their day at 10 am and taking Saturdays off I wonder if they are able to handle the job of selling your home or helping you find your next home. A good agent is a hard working agent who has implemented systems that will give the client the edge they deserve in order to get the job done.
