Photo of 8120 Madrillon Springs Ln The ideal agent for you may have less experience, and might not have a brand new car. The best choice of agent for you is not afraid to tell you the truth (even when you don't want to hear it),  and has the flexibility to work on your schedule. Tastes, budgets and needs will change depending upon who the property seeker is. Some purchasers love fixer-uppers.Some home buyers have a large down-payment.Some property hunters want a big lawn. Every home shopper is unique in the same way, real estate pros have different specialties and attention to detail. Here's some best practices for spotting the best real estate pro for you when you're buying a property with 0 sqft of living space:

    2. Check out real estate agent 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 satisfactionPhoto of 8120 Madrillon Springs Ln
    3. Interview several Realtors — You don't have to exhaust yourself talking to agent after agent, but at least talk with two or three to see who you're most comfortable with. There is no one-size-fits-all. I know that I'm not the real estate pro for every purchaser.
    4. Don't under estimate the value of likability. — You will probably be working with your real estate agent anywhere from 2 to 12 months, so it helps to get along with them. You want a good listener and a Realtor this isn't eager to the point of desperation.
    5. Ask the Realtor his/her process for finding townhouses in Vienna. — When choosing a agent, ask how they search for townhouses. Some Realtors have their own preferred listings that they favor. But you want what’s dream for you, not what’s ideal for your agent. So make sure the real estate professional is willing to search high and low to find the ideal place of residence for you. That includes using the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) as well as their own personal network.
    6. Find out more about your representation agreement. — The Commonwealth of Virginia requires all licensed agents to sign a representation agreement before showing properties or having material discussions about a specific townhouse. Be very wary of any agent that is not concerned about getting a representation agreement signed. It doesn't hurt to have a legal counselor take a look at your representation agreement, but usually that's not necessary. The document is pretty straight forward. It's critical that you examine all documents during the home buying process, and that includes your agent's representation agreement.
