Questions to Ask When Selecting A Real Estate Professional

• How long have you been in business?
• How many transactions did you have in the last year?
• What neighborhoods do you specialize in?
• What price range do you usually work in?
• How often should I expect to hear from you while I am looking for a home?
• How will you keep me informed of the latest available properties that match my criteria?
• Can you tell me about any local, state, federal or Veteran’s programs that may benefit first time home buyers?
• Can you provide me with a list of references? (Ask the references about the Realtor’s experience, organization skills, knowledge, communication skills and integrity.)
