In selecting the right estate agent to work with, you should
ask them the following key questions:
Is the agent a member of the National Association of Estate
Agents and subscribes to its strict code of ethics
Is Estate agency their full-time career?
What estate agency qualifications does the agent hold?
Who is the agent representing-you or the seller? The discussion
is supposed to occur early on, at the "initial interview"
with you. The agent should discuss his particular definitions
of agency, so you'll know where you stand.
In exchange for your commitment, how will the estate agent
help you accomplish your goals?
Will the agent show you homes that meet your requirements
and provide you with a list of the properties he or she
is showing you?
