What to Ask Your Calgary REALTOR®: Question #3

Hiring the right real estate agent and REALTOR® for the job, one who will take care of all the details for you while providing only the best service and advice, is a key part of being 100 percent satisfied with your home buying and / or selling experience.

Part of finding the right person for the job is asking questions - and lots of them! By following this comprehensive guide, you'll be able to find a REALTOR® who will help you be more than successful in your next real estate transaction.

Q3. Why did you decide to become a REALTOR®?

Everyone works to make money so they can pay their bills and do other things in life - that's quite obvious. But besides the most apparent reason, why did your chosen REALTOR® get into the business?

This question gives your REALTOR® the opportunity to explain their business philosophy and work ethic in their own words. You will get a sense of their attitude about the business and ultimately their attitude towards your transaction! You want to make sure that the REALTOR® is focused on service and will put your best interests first.

This should give you some further insight into the personality and values of the REALTOR® you are contemplating hiring. Remember, the task of helping you buy or sell a home is an important job and finding the right REALTOR® is a crucial decision that can set the tone for success or failure down the road.

Why I Became a REALTOR®

Personally, I became a REALTOR® because I love helping people. When I help my clients successfully navigate the buying or selling process, it gives me a feeling of accomplishment.

It feels great knowing I was an integral part of a successful purchase and / or sale, which ultimately the largest financial decision most people make in their lifetimes. Of course I get paid for what I do but I believe if you do what you love and always provide the best possible service, then the money will follow!

Buying or selling a home or condo in Calgary is a huge decision. You need the right REALTOR® to guide you because ultimately your outcome is highly attributable to their work ethic and professionalism!
