Not All Real Estate Agents Are The Same

As a seller, trying to save a few thousand dollars on listing commissions could cost you much more in the end. Don't sacrifice expertise, customer service, professionalism, and performance by choosing a real estate agent solely based on their commission rate. A great real estate agent will spend a lot of time, energy, and resources to properly market your home and achieve the highest net proceeds to you.

As a home buyer, you will not pay your real estate agent because the commissions are paid by the seller. So, you are less concerned about saving there, but should still consider what your agent will do for you through the process. Home buying is typically the greatest expense people encounter in their lives. Make sure your agent has the skills, experience, and ability to help you get the best house for your budget and needs.
