A Home Owner told me they were hiring an Exclusive Buyer agent to list their home because they have more buyers. Today there was a Q and A who would make the best listing agent. Just when Manchester NH area Home Owners think they can not be more confused, this question comes up. The answer though is an easy one when you define what the Job of the listing agent is. The Listing Agents job is to attract buyers to your home and get it sold at the best price possible in the quickest amount of time. A Buyer agent may seem to have more buyers, but a GOOD listing agent will attract many more with a well thought out marketing and advertising plan targeting the most potential type of buyer for your home.
The one fact that this home seller is missing, is selling a home is not just about finding potential buyers. It is getting the sale to close. It starts with getting an offer acceptable to the seller in both price and terms. It is about that agent being there through each step of the selling process. It is that agent being there for the home inspection. It is about that agent following up constantly and consistently with the buyers mortgage process. It is that the agent assists the seller through any requests by the buyer on home inspection issues. It is being there for the appraisal. It is about constant communication with the all involved including the seller, buyers agent and buyer loan officer. In the end it is about the agent seeing the home through to closing.
This question is not about who is better: A listing agent or a buyer broker... but it is about who is best for the job you are hiring them for. The BOTTOM LINE is that your choice in agent will affect how well or not so well your home sale will go.

1. LEARN THIS ONE FACT: One should know that All Agents are not created equal and every buyer or seller should take the time to hire the BEST not just the biggest Agent or Company. It is important to Hire the BEST Agent. In NH that could be me.

Ask for a Full time agent whose sole job is to sell homes. b. Ask for a Full service agent who will guide you through each step of the selling process. Discount brokers often equal discount services. c. Ask for a Local agent who knows your neighborhood and is readily available when you need them is a must. Out of town agents can leave you high and dry in your time of need. d. Ask for a well experienced Listing Agent can give you the advantages you need when selling your home. Not all agents are created equal. Choose only the best.
3. HOME BUYERS SHOULD START BY: Getting a FREE PRE-QUALIFICATION with a local and trusted lender. They will look at your credit and financial picture and let you know what type of mortgage you may qualify for and what your interest rate and monthly payment may be.
4. HOME SELLERS SHOULD START BY: Getting a FREE MARKET ANALYSIS. Learn what your property is worth in today's market along with how ling it may take to sell.
