In this week’s episode we are going to talk about5 questions to ask when interviewing a realtor. When it comes to finding a realtor to help you buy or sell a home, it's important to do your due diligence and ask the right questions. A good realtor will be able to provide you with the information you need to make an informed decision, and will also be able to answer any questions you may have about the process. Here are five questions to consider asking a realtor:

What is your experience level in the real estate industry?

It's important to find a realtor who has a good amount of experience in the industry. A realtor with a lot of experience will have a better understanding of the market and will be able to provide you with valuable insights and advice.

Can you provide references from past clients?

A good realtor will be able to provide you with references from past clients who can speak to the quality of their services. This will give you a better idea of what to expect from the realtor and will help you make a more informed decision.

How do you stay up-to-date on the latest real estate market trends?

The real estate market is constantly changing, and it's important to find a realtor who stays up-to-date on the latest trends. Ask the realtor about their strategies for staying informed, such as attending industry conferences or subscribing to relevant publications.

What sets you apart from other realtors in the area?

Every realtor is different, so it's important to ask about what sets the realtor you're interviewing apart from their competitors. This could include unique services they offer or specialized knowledge they have about a particular area or type of property.

Can you provide an estimated timeline for the home buying or selling process?

Buying or selling a home can be a time-consuming process, so it's important to have a rough idea of how long it will take. Ask the realtor for an estimated timeline, including how long it will take to find a property, negotiate a contract, and close on the sale. This will help you plan and prepare for the process ahead.

Asking these questions can help you find a realtor who is a good fit for your needs and will work diligently to help you achieve your real estate goals. Thanks for watching and remember if you Make Maine Your Home, you don’t have to do it alone!
