The most compatible real estate agent in Fairfax County isn't necessarily born in McLean, and might work for a family business (or a Fortune-400 company). The ideal real estate pro wants to work hard to find you the property of your dreams, is one who listens to you, and is equipped to handle unique situations when they arise.

No two shoppers have the same problems. Some buyers are only interested in Potomac Overlook. Some shoppers want a big lawn. Some home shoppers can can only afford $1,477,250 while others are willing to pay $1,632,750 for the same house. Realtors are like home hunters, persistences have different accomplishments and attention to detail.
Here's how to shop the licensed real estate adviser for you when your purchasing in 22102:
Check out licensed real estate adviser 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.
Take a minute to talk to a couple of real estate pros — The Realtor you should should have time to talk to you. If you pick the most popular agent in Fairfax County, you might find yourself working with a junior associate affiliated with that real estate professional. The licensed real estate adviser you choose should be able to clearly understand your needs.
It's important that you get along well with your agent. — You want a good listener and a licensed real estate adviser this isn't eager to the point of desperation. You don't want to have to explain the same thoughts and ideas over and over.
Find out how each agent identifies properties. — When choosing a real estate agent, ask how they search for homes. Some Realtors have their own preferred listings that they favor. But you want what’s best for you, not what’s best for your Realtor. So make sure the agent is willing to search high and low to find the best home for you. That includes using the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) as well as their own personal network.
Read paperwork carefully. — The Commonwealth of Virginia requires all agents to sign a representation agreement before showing properties or having material discussions about a specific property. Be very wary of any agent that is no concerned about getting a representation agreement signed. This advice is heavily used for a reason. It's critical that you examine all documents during the home buying process, and that includes your agent's representation agreement.
