5 Signs You Might Be Talking to the Wrong Realtor

Choosing the right Realtor can make all the difference in a successful and stress-free home selling experience. Unfortunately, not all Realtors are created equal, and some may not provide the expertise and guidance you need. To ensure you partner with the best, it’s crucial to recognize the signs that you might be working with the wrong Realtor. Here are five red flags to watch out for when selecting your real estate professional.

  1. If the Realtor wants to know what price you want to list for, you might have the wrong Realtor.
    Great realtors know pricing and how to defend it. If the realtor can’t defend pricing to you, how are they going to defend the value to buyers and other realtors?
  2. If the Realtor wants to list a home before it is show ready, you might have the wrong Realtor.
    Homes only have one grand opening and should generate multiple bids in the first week.
  3. If the Realtor doesn’t have a highest and best contract negotiating strategy, you definitely have the wrong Realtor. Highest and best strategy get buyers to bid $150k+ over next highest bids. Even if they are the only bid.
  4. If your Realtor doesn’t specialize in luxury homes, you might have the wrong Realtor.
    Luxury homes require higher end marketing and negotiating strategies.
  5. If your Realtor doesn’t have a track record of successful sales in the first 30 days, you might have the wrong Realtor. The highest value and best terms will come in the first 7-30 days.

Don’t settle for less; choose a Realtor with a proven track record like our team, where our top 100 listings sold in the first week with an average of 106% of the list price.
