Tastes, budgets and needs will change depending upon who the shopper is. Some shoppers don't plan on selling. Others need to move in 4 years. Some buyers want a big lawn. Some buyers need garage parking. Just as shoppers are different, Realtors have different talents and attention to detail. Here's a several ideas to aid you desire the right agent for you when you’re buying in 22310:

  1. Check out real estate pro referrals. — I like Angie’s List because I know that Angie’s List voice verifies each review. You can also see if the agent or brokerage has any awards for client satisfaction.
  2. Take a minute to talk to a couple of Realtors — The real estate pro you choose should be able to clearly understand your needs. You sometimes need to see the residence you don't want to buy to feel comfortable with the home you will buy. It's the same with Realtors.
  3. It's important that you get along well with your real estate pro. — Interpersonal skills are as important as professional skills. You will probably be working with your licensed real estate adviser anywhere from 2 to 12 months, so it helps to get along with them.
  4. Ask the Realtor his/her process for finding homes. — When picking a Realtor, ask how they find houses. Some Realtors have their own preferred listings that they favor. But you want what’s dream for you, not what’s most suitable for your Realtor. So make sure the Realtor is willing to search high and low to find the right Rambler-style for you. That includes using the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) as well as their own personal network.
  5. Read paperwork carefully. — The Commonwealth of Virginia requires all licensed agents to sign a representation agreement before showing properties or having material discussions about a specific Rambler-style. Be very wary of any agent that is not concerned about getting a representation agreement signed. Some representation agreements describe a rebate paid to the property seeker at closing. (Nesbitt Realty offers rebates.) You'll want to read the fine print to make sure that this rebate isn't pulled away at the last minute. It's critical that you examine all documents during the home buying process, and that includes your agent's representation agreement.
I’ll take the worries out of your real estate goals. To learn more about 3700 Austin Ave or any homes available in Alexandria, dream me. I’m Julie Nesbitt and I appreciate the opportunity.
