Sellers need a Top Producer- Listing/Sellers Real Estate Agent- Realtor Rehoboth-Dighton-Swansea-surrounding areas

You’re ready to sell your property. And, while you’re looking forward to seeing the word “SOLD” posted from the curb, you know there’s a lot to consider along the way. One of your first decisions is to select a top producer-real estate listing/sellers agent who’ll join you in the process.

You deserve much more than a sign in the yard, fliers in a box and an occasional open house. You deserve an experienced agent who will be at your side, proactively. From listing to closing, ensuring that your property sells smoothly and you get the most money possible from the sale of your home.

So how do you select the right agent to sell your home?

1. Ask how many homes they sold in the past 3 years and insist on documentation.

2. Ask about their market knowledge- statistics on the area (this will be give you an idea of how experienced the agent really is).

3. Ask them what their average days on market is, and inisist on evidence.

4. Ask what their average list to sales price is.

5. Get refererences with phone numbers of sellers.

Be sure that you don't hire an agent based on years of experience. Hire based on the quality of experience in those years. I know agents that have been in business 20+ years and only sell 2 houses a year.
