NEXT MONTH’S FEATURE TOPIC

Do Open Houses Give the Seller False Hope?

HIRING A SOLO AGENT VERSUS A TEAM

1. Important: Before you sell your home, ask whether your real estate agent is a Solo

Agent or works with a team.

2. Is the reason for the “Team” to inflate sales volume for the Primary Agent or

to honestly improve customer service?

3. Real estate teams can be comprised of a couple of agents or a dozen agents. Teams

may consist of the Primary Agent, listing specialist, buyers specialist, transaction

coordinators, administrative assistants, closing coordinator, and marketing

director.

4. With real estate teams you may be asked to communicate with many agents

throughout the length of the transaction… be cautious of communication

breakdowns, especially with larger teams.

5. As you may be moved from agent to another, who will ultimately be responsible

to you? The Primary Agent or one of the team members?

6. A solo real estate agent is one who works directly with a buyer or seller from start

to finish through all phases of the transaction.

7. Your communication is with one agent and and one agent only…you can expect

that agent to be responsible for the total transaction.

8. The solo agent does not have the option to pass along blame to someone else.

9. When working with a solo agent, you must be assured that the agent has the

commitment and time available for you.

10. Who will be at the all important closing to represent you? Someone you’ve never met?

11. When making your final decision, decide who has the most knowledge, experience,

and integrity.
