The Purpose of a Good Real Estate Agent

By Melisa Dominguez

A professional whose job it is to connect people that are selling real estate to people who are in interested in purchasing a piece of real estate is called a real estate realtor. In addition to selling real estate, many realtors also deal with rental properties. In exchange for their services, realtors receive a commission at the end of every sale or rental that they complete.

The one thing you should know when you are dealing with a realtor is that when the real estate in question is being sold, the only person who has to worry about paying the realtors commission is the person who is selling the property. If you are using the realtor to arrange for a rental, the realtor will request that both parties pay the commission.

Most owners believe that the services of a real estate agent is money well spent. The first advantage of listing your home with an estate agent is to be listed quickly. A good real estate agent can get a list of your house on the market faster than you can ever.

The speed of listing is only one of the advantages to using a real estate agent. Real estate agents have a cast network of contacts and resources, something you cant get when you try selling your house on your own. Most real estate companies have websites that allow them to advertise your home to even more potential buyers.

Most owners believe that even taking into account the commission of the real estate agent then presents the house is sold is justified. After all, homes that are listed with a real estate agent usually sell several thousand dollars more than the houses that were sold privately by the owner.

When you are trying to find a real estate agent to sell your house, you should spend some time observing how they handle their clients that are looking to purchase or rent. You will know that you are dealing with a truly professional real estate agent when the agent really listens to what their client is telling them, what things they will need and directs them to the properties that suit the needs of their client, even if the property is listed with another real estate agent. A truly professional real estate agent understands that the recommendation of a truly happy client is worth just as much as a sales commission. - 23208
