1.Look for the signs of good agent
Pay attention to the way they dress because per personality is the reflection of their attitude. Your agent is not able to convince the potential buyer to part away with their money if they don’t look smart and professional. When you speak to the agent, ask for an appraisal and not for the valuation since this can be done only through licensed valuer.
2.Shop around
When looking for a real estate agent in Bendigo, shop for the agent the way you be looking for other professionals like lawyer, accountant, etc.
3.Ask questions
Ask direct questions like “How often you should expect to hear from them?” or “How many team members would be working on the sale campaign?”, “Would you be able to handle the sale all by yourself?”
4.Ask for their marketing strategies
Make sure to ask you what would be their marketing strategies and who would be their target buyers. Look how strong is their online marketing strategies, would their website be strong enough to increase the visibility of your property.
5.Take a feedback on your properties presentation
A good agent would have a good insight and experience on what sells almost instantly. They should be honest in their feedback. If the feedback is neither negative of positive, then you might just be dealing with wrong agent.
6.Make sure that the agent gives a realistic opinion on the value of the property
Don’t get carried away if the agent suggests a very high price for the property. People tend to get carried away and sign the deal getting impressed by the value the agent gives. Remember it’s not the agent or the seller who decide the value of the property; it’s the buyer who determines it.
It’s the combination of professionalism, experience and drive that would qualify for a good Bendigo real estate agent.
