6 Key Questions To Ask Before Hiring a Real Estate Broker header image.

 

Before signing with any agent, ask: How many homes have you sold in this zip code in the last 12 months? What is your average list-to-sale price ratio? How will you market my home beyond the MLS? Who will I actually be working with day-to-day? What is your communication style and response time? What happens if I am not happy — can I cancel? The answers will tell you everything.
