The dream licensed real estate adviser is not necessarily flamboyant, and might not have a brand new car. The right real estate pro wants to work hard to find you the home of your dreams,  and helps point out the benefits as well as the flaws of attractive homes. Every buyer is different. Some buyers want a big lawn. Some shoppers have a large down-payment.Some property hunters can can only afford $664,050 while others are willing to pay $733,950 for the same house. Just as home hunters have different needs, real estate professionals have different experiences and accomplishments. Here's a a few ideas to help you pick the best real estate agent for you when you're buying in Fairfax:

1. 
   1. Check out Realtor 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 — You don't have to exhaust yourself talking to agent after agent, but at least interface with two or three to see who you're most comfortable with. The real estate agent you choose should be able to clearly understand your needs.
   3. It's important that you get along well with your agent. — You will probably be working with your Realtor anywhere from 2 to 12 months, so it helps to get along with them. You don't want to have to explain the same thoughts and ideas over and over.
   4. Ask the Realtor his/her process for finding homes. — When deciding on a agent, ask how they identify homes. Some licensed real estate advisers have their own preferred listings that they favor. But you want what’s best choice of for you, not what’s perfect for your real estate agent. So make sure the Realtor is willing to search high and low to find the right residence for you. That includes using the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) as well as their own personal network.
   5. The devil is in the details. — The Commonwealth of Virginia requires all licensed 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 not concerned about getting a representation agreement signed. Some representation agreements describe a rebate paid to the property hunter 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. This advice is heavily used for a reason.

Think of Nesbitt Realty for buying, selling, renting and property management. I specialize in military relocation.
