{Hiring A Realtor} Picking a Dallas Realtor

Picking a Dallas Realtor
Picking a Dallas Realtor is a big decision. Buying a home isn't something most people do on a regular basis and rarely do they know agents personally or have one on retainer like they may have a lawyer for regular business purposes.
If your job doesn't entail a lot of property transactions you might feel like a fish out of water when looking around for a Dallas Realtor. Fortunately, deciding on the right one isn't as hard as you might think.

Realtors Are People Too
That's right, they have the same qualities you would think of in any other individual you might do business with. So, finding a Realtor really comes down to measuring many of the same values you'd use to choose another business associate.

· Honesty
· Reputation
· Track Record
· Testimonials

Here are two tips to help you determine which Realtor is right for you:
· Ask the Realtor's you're considering for a list of past clients. Contact those past clients to find out what they thought of the agents and if they'd use them again.
· Interview the Realtor. Ask them how long they've been in the Dallas real estate business, how many homes they've sold in the past year, how they can help you find a home.

If you're looking for a Dallas Realtor, I'd be honored if you'd give me the opportunity to interview for the job. Contact me now at 214-699-1340 or email me at matt@hretexas.com.
