  1. How To Hire A Real Estate Agent

  2. Talk with recent clients • Before hiring a Real Estate agent for selling or purchasing a house, check out his/her client references and talk to them. Ask them to share their experience with the particular real estate agent.

  3. Check for Licensing • There are many so called real estate agent who don’t have any license to deal in real estate industry. May be they could be cheap rather than the real one but it will be too risky to work with those peoples.

  4. Pick a winner • It is understood that you will work with only one agent. So make a research about the agents and choose the winner. Peer-given awards count, says Phipps. One that really means something is the “Realtor of the Year” designation awarded by the state or local branch of NAR.

  5. Select an agent with the right credentials Doctors have specialties, and so do real estate agents. Even generalists will get additional training in some areas. So, the alphabet soup after an agent’s name can be an indication that the person has taken additional classes in a certain category of real estate sales. Here’s what some of the designations mean: • CRS (Certified Residential Specialist): Completed additional training in handling residential real estate. • ABR (Accredited Buyer’s Representative): Completed additional education in representing buyers in transactions. • SRES (Seniors Real Estate Specialist): Completed training aimed at helping buyers and sellers in the 50-plus age range.

  6. Look at current listings • Check out an agent’s listings online, says Brobeck, of the Consumer Federation. Places to look include the agency’s own website and sites such as Realtor.com, which offer a searchable online database of properties in the Multiple Listing Service.

  7. Ask about other houses for sale nearby • A good agent should know about other area properties that are available “off the top of his head,” says Irwin. Mention a house in your area that’s sold recently or is for sale. If the agent knows the property and can give you a few details, that means he or she really knows your area, he says. “You want someone like that, who’s on top of the market.”
