Choosing a real estate agent shouldn't come down to who you know.
Sure, your cousin's sister might be an agent, but is she the right agent for you?
Buying or selling a home involves a lot of personal conversations. We're talking finances, family situations, future plans, and sometimes some pretty difficult decisions.
You need someone who knows the market and can guide you through the process, but you also need someone you feel comfortable being honest with.
Someone you can ask questions without feeling silly. Someone who listens to what you want, but isn't afraid to tell you what you need to hear.
It's a relationship that requires trust, communication, and a little give and take on both sides.
My advice? Interview agents. Ask questions. Get a feel for how they work.
Experience is important, but so is finding someone you genuinely connect with.
