The Liz Luke Team
Real estate transactions can be hefty emotional and financial decisions. Novice and veteran buyers and sellers alike will immeasurably benefit from the advice and resources of an experienced Realtor.
Partner up with a pro that you trust is the key to choosing the right Realtor. Begin by asking close friends and family for recommendations. The foundation of real estate and related industries is built on relationships. Successful real estate agents have clients that return year after year. Die hard fans like this aren’t a dime a dozen - they’re cultivated by exceptional Realtors who build confidence with clients by listening closely to their needs and supporting the achievement of their goals - both immediate and long-term.
Realtors often come as a package deal and are part of a team including buyer and seller agents and administrative and marketing staff. Clients benefit from this additional manpower, receiving seamless transaction management from the initial meeting and continuing until long after settlement. Also players on a Realtor’s team are an extended network of business associates (lending firms, attorneys, etc.) and supplementary services (home inspectors, handymen, etc.) that assist in the smooth navigation of transactions.
Paperwork involved in the purchase or sale of a home is plenty; auxiliary staff ensure deadlines and contract requirements are met. Team agents have access to regular continuing education courses in order to stay current with industry regulations, making certain clients are in compliance with the latest requirements. Regular training also means these Realtors are likely to have timely and reliable market insight. This data puts buyers on the ‘first to know’ list of active properties and supports accurate pricing strategies for sellers.
Expert Realtors are tough negotiators, too. They will go to bat for a client’s best interests, deter potential red flags, whittle down sales prices when possible and insist that the parties on the other side of a transaction are up to par.
Wherever you are on your real estate journey, an experienced Realtor is an invaluable asset to the victories you hope to achieve.
