A REAL
ESTATE
AGENT!
When you’re ready to make the biggest purchase
of your life, or sell your biggest investment, it
would be silly to go it alone. Having a real estate
agent by your side means having your biggest ally
ready to work for you. Armed with knowledge of
area neighborhoods, the local housing market, and
buyers and sellers ready to make moves, a real
estate agent can help guide you on the journey to
a new home.
Whether you’re moving to a brand-new town,
or just one town over, real estate agents are
familiar with the surrounding community. They can
inform you of the local school districts, shops and
restaurants, or even pet-friendly neighborhoods—
whatever aligns with your needs and wants. Be
sure your agent has a list of your must-haves and
your wish list for a new home, as this will help him/
her understand exactly what you’re looking for
in a new home and may even expand the search
beyond what you thought you had available to you.
Having someone who is privy to
insider community information is definitely a perk,
but not the only thing agents have to offer. They
also provide valuable access to the multiple listing
service (MLS), other real estate professionals,
mortgage lenders, home inspectors, attorneys and
title companies, allowing a streamlined process for
home buying or selling. Access to information that
isn’t often public on home listings, such as square
footage, seller disclosures and HOA regulations, is
also something a real estate agent can offer.
With a wealth of information from past
experiences, colleagues and connections in the
field, and access to the MLS, real estate agents
are able to provide you with a concrete foundation
for making your home purchase or sale. They’ll
be able to identify whether something seems too
good to be true, or if you’re getting all the facts.
You can also count on them to develop an offer or
listed price that reflects market value, to negotiate
on your behalf, and interact with the other
party’s agent.
