How to Choose a Real Estate Agent: Questions to Ask

Your agent will guide you through one of the largest transactions of your life, so it’s worth interviewing more than one. Here are questions to bring.

Experience and approach

  • How long have you worked in this area?
  • Have you handled situations like mine?
  • How will you communicate with me, and how often?
  • Who will handle the paperwork and deadlines?

Fees and agreements

  • How are you paid, and what services does that include?
  • What does your agreement require, and how long does it last?
  • Can I see the agreement before I decide?
