subject: Finding Realtors Who Care About The Customer [print this page] Finding the right realtors for the sale of your present home or for the purchase of a new home is very important. The wrong realtor could mean years of struggle with trying to get your home to sell. It could also mean you not getting a home that fits who you are. It could even mean getting home that has problems that you did not know about because the right processes were not accomplished before purchasing it.
A realtor who really cares about the customer will be organized, prompt, and personable. These three areas are considerations as you look for realtors who excel at customer service. You will only be able to find out about these areas by doing a little research into what others think about them and by your own consultations.
Before taking on a realtor, you really should spend some time talking to them. By talking to them, you will quickly find out whether you are a priority. Other phone calls should be ignored, especially those that are personal, he or she should be on time to the meeting or ready for you when you arrive, and should also be kind and personable.
It is not enough to have just this consultation in order to make your decision. You should also do a little research. You should be able to find out fairly easily a few of the customers that specific realtors have had. Take the time to give a few a call to see what he or she thought of the realtor. You would also be wise to do some online searching. Of course you could run into some false reviews, but if you look in fairly reputable places, you should find accurate info.
After speaking with a few realtors and doing some research, you might be satisfied with several. From there, just go with your preference. You should of course also take into some consideration what percentage a realtor wants of the sale of a home or how much they charge to help you find one. These considerations might help you make your final choice.
Once you have found the right one, you will want to set out and begin finding a home or getting your home ready to sell. Realtors should have some knowledge of what people want in a home, so that one that you choose should be able to help you with these details if you are selling. If you are buying, make sure that you are careful in your considerations and that you do not choose something in desperation.
