Charlotte Home Seller Tips | The Listing Agent Interview

Choose a Charlotte Real Estate Agent Who Will Work for You

When it comes time to sell your home, the person who can ensure a quick sale at top dollar is your Charlotte real estate agent.  He or she will be the primary person marketing your home, and if your professional doesn’t work hard to sell your Charlotte home, it can cost you precious time on the market and ultimately, big money.

Choosing the right Charlotte real estate agent can be tricky though.  To help you make a wise choice, below are five simple questions you should ask agents before making your decision:

  1. Let Charlotte's top marketing team go to work for YOUHow many other homeowners are you currently working with?  An agent with too many properties on their plate may not give your home the proper attention it needs to attract potential buyers.  Conversely, if the agent has no listings, that may not be a good sign.
  2. Are you going to be readily available?  There is nothing more frustrating than working with an agent who seems too busy to show your home, take phone calls or answer emails.
  3. How does your real estate agency compare to the others in town? Any brokerage with great statistics will be happy to share them with you. Bear in mind, you may get more personal attention working with a boutique agency as well – they specialize in your area and cater to buyers in search of your particular community as well.
  4. Are you a member of the National Association of REALTORS®? Members are held accountable for their professional ethics.  They continually participate in training and educational courses to keep up their certification.
  5. What’s your plan for marketing my home?  A good agent will be able to give you a detailed and well-thought-out plan for marketing your Charlotte home.  It’s also a good idea to make sure your expectations are clear before entering into any agreement.

Selling your home can be stressful. When selecting a Charlotte real estate agent to represent your interests, it’s important you feel comfortable that he or she will meet your expectations.
