Sellers Are Looking for 5 Top Skills in their Agent in 2023

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty ~ 512.750.6899

Agents, do you know what top 5 skills sellers are looking for in an Agent? 2023 is here and sellers are looking to agents for a certain skill set to sell their home along with a high level of proficiency. They know just putting a home in the MLS is not going to illicit 10 offers. That era has come and gone.

The market has shifted and sellers are interviewing with 5 top skill sets in mind:

u Marketing! What comprehensive plan have you created?

u Ability to sell within a timeframe.

u Competent advice on competitive pricing.

u How will you identify the buyer and capture their attention?

u Home improvement advice for best pricing.

 

Are you ready to address these needs of today’s sellers?

Your reputation of the “trusted, get it done agent” should exemplify all these skills. If they don’t, then brush up on what is expected in the arena of “listing properties” in today’s market.

Many sellers have awakened to the reality the market has sifted, and have a new outlook on who they want to represent them. If they haven't you don't want to work with them, Joan Cox

Dorie Dillard Austin TX - I would agree with you 100%. 

I wish you could have seen me reading your blog post. My face scruched up reading your list in which I fully agreed. But when I saw that last photograph of the dog with red hair wearing a necklace and eyeglasses, I bust out laughing!
