THEY KEY TO FINDING THE BEST REAL Estate Agent
By: Realtor Ricardo “ Ric “ Inting

At some Point during your search to buy or sell real estate, you will need the services of a good real estate agent. Selecting an agent can confusing for some. But there are ways to determine who is most likely to succeed in helping you get our maximum price and best terms when either selling a house or buying a house.

Some Question to ask the Prospective Realtor

:: How do you plan to market my property?

:: How do Buyers contact you?

:: In what ways will you encourage other Real Estate agents to sell my home

:: How many properties have you sold within the past 30 days?
   90 days? Or 60 60 months?

:: Do you have a list of references that I may check?

:: What do you think my property is worth? What listing price do you
    recommend / and how did you arrive at the price/

:: Will you have a written marketing Plan designed to sell my property
    quickly and for top dollar or peso?



If you are not satisfied with the answer the prospective agent gives you, move on to the next one. You should feel comfortable with your agent.
The tree main factors you should consider before selling our home are:

1. Location

Your home’s location and setting influences its value. A home inside a quite subdivision sells for more than the identical home on a busy street, remote areas typically sells for less than close-in areas views, streams and trees usually enhance value.

2. Condition

New Homes enjoy a marketing edge over resale homes because they are shiny and clean. And builders enhance their appeal by offering model homes (clean, bright, decorated in current colors and amenities) for buyers to examine.

3. Pricing

If IBM stock is trading between 110 and 120, it does no good to insist on selling it at 150. Likewise, your home must be priced within the appropriate range in order to sell. You must actually “ sell” your Property twice: first to a buyer and then to an appraiser. The amenities of your home to those of other homes in the same price range. The appraiser is more objective and compares age, size, and cost-identifiable features in your home against other properties that have sold.
Your agent should use his experience and expertise to fine-tune the price
by taking into consideration all of these important variables.

Surprisingly, most homebuyers go about the process of buying a house completely backwards!
