Let's say you own waterfront property on Lake Martin, and want to sell it. Let's also say that you have the good sense to hire a Realtor to help you list and sell it. What are your choices? Whom should you pick?
Selecting an average agent instead of a great one could end up costing you major dollars. You need to make sure to partner with one that fits you best.
Here are 5 Realtors that Lake Martin sellers should not pick:
1. Don't pick The Part Timer. Would you let a part time financial guy manage your retirement account? Okay then. It may be easy to be average, but being great at selling real estate is tough work (even on Lake Martin). It is more than a 40 hour a week job to do things like talk to buyers, show properties, scout new listings, scour FSBOs, research property sales, and stay educated on licensing, contracts, housing laws, etc. The Part Timer has other priorities. You deserve better.
2. Don't pick The Suck Up. Given the high value of Lake Martin real estate, a small mistake in selling your property can cost you thousands. Do you want your listing agent to tell you what they think you want to hear, or to tell you the truth? The Suck Up: "Sure, Mrs. Seller, I think it's a great idea to have a palm reader on site to give mystical advice to buyers when they visit!" Puh-leez.
