Searching for a new home can be fun but also overwhelming. There are so many things to be aware of. A great real estate agent will make sure you’re keeping your wants, needs, and budget in mind.

An honest and ethical agent will sit down with you and listen to your specific situation, what your needs are, and what your future plans are to be able to effectively guide and counsel you into whether now is the right time or not.
As you’ve probably noticed, you can easily attend open houses to find the home of your dreams, so why would you bother with a real estate agent who will just pester you with questions, phone calls, and emails?

I met a client at a property last week and we got to chatting as we were waiting for the listing agent to arrive. He worked in International Development so I was telling him about my previous career which was very aligned and how I had recently decided to make a move to real estate.
His first question: “Are you licensed?”
My response: “Yes! If I wasn’t licensed I couldn’t be here showing you this property.”
