How to choose the right real estate agent: what nobody tells you

Buying or selling a property is one of the most important decisions of your life. That’s why choosing the right real estate agent is key to a smooth, secure, and successful process. However, many homeowners and buyers don’t know what aspects to consider beyond friendliness or proximity. At REMAX Drac, we’ll tell you what few others mention:

Beyond kindness: training and experience

An agent should be approachable, yes, but also professional and well-trained. Always ask about their experience in the area, their knowledge of the local market, and their training. An agent who invests in staying up-to-date is an agent who will look after your interests.

Network and reach

An agent’s ability to promote your property or find the perfect home depends on their network. A professional backed by a large agency or a network like RE/MAX significantly increases your property’s visibility and access to potential buyers or exclusive properties.

Marketing strategy

A good agent doesn’t just post photos: they analyze the market, study the competition, set a realistic asking price, and develop a personalized marketing plan. Ask them to explain how they plan to position your property or how they will find the property you need.

Transparency and a clear contract

A trustworthy agent will explain their fees, the estimated time for the sale or purchase, and the steps you’ll take together from the outset. Be wary of those who avoid discussing costs or pressure you to sign without explaining everything in detail.

Opinions and references

Look for reviews from other customers or ask for references. The real-life experiences of people who have worked with that agent are one of the best indicators of their professionalism and commitment.

Conclusion: Choosing the right real estate agent means choosing peace of mind, security, and results. At REMAX Drac, we have a trained team with local experience and the backing of the RE/MAX network, ensuring that buying or selling your property is a positive experience from start to finish.
