Choosing a Listing Agent

HOW TO CHOOSE A NH LISTING AGENT

In many ways, selling your real estate in 2023 is no different than in years past. The most important aspect of selling your property is having the right REALTOR® on your side. Here are some tips you will need to consider as you move forward looking for the "right" New Hampshire real estate agent to sell your property.


WHAT TO CONSIDER

  • Is your real estate agent a REALTOR® and a member in good standing with the local Board of REALTORS® and the NH Real Estate Commission?  Let's face it, the property you are looking to sell may be one of your largest investments and you need to make sure that you are represented by a true professional. 

  • Make sure that your agent is a good negotiator. In today's market, inventory is still low and demand is high. You need an agent that will be working for you to negotiate both the best price and terms possible for the sale of your property.

  • Has your agent presented you with a market analysis sharing their opinion of value for your property in today's market?  The last thing you need is an agent that asks you what "you want" to put you property on the market for, only to simply agree. Your agent is the professional and you should rely on that agent to receive the best results. In today's market where values are continuing to rise, you do not want to be the one "chasing" the market looking for the right value to complete a sale.

  • Finally, make sure the agent you choose is heavily invested in the internet. As it has been for many years and continues to be, the internet is where 84% of new buyers start and continue to search for real estate to purchase. You want your agent to show you that they have a strong company website and social media exposure to attract buyers coming to our area. Your agent will guide you through our robust local and RE/MAX national marketing plan which is designed to attract buyers from local areas to far reaching locations. Sellers, the days of marketing your property in print venues are gone. You need to have a strong internet presence to get the best results in the shortest amount of time.


The keys to selling your property are the right agent, the right positioning/price placed on your New Hampshire property and finally, your willingness to negotiate. Ensure that you have the right agent by your side to position your property correctly and you will be a part of this exciting year in real estate and achieve your goals!
