What to Ask Your Calgary REALTOR®: Question #1
Hiring a REALTOR® in Calgary is an important decision which will directly impact the success of selling and / or buying your next property.
With this comprehensive guide I hope to help you learn more about the interview process so that you pick a REALTOR® who fits your personal needs and real estate goals best. Also see our Calgary REALTOR® Interview Guide today.
Q1. a) Do you have references I can call directly, not read, email or otherwise, but physically talk to?
A REALTOR® in Calgary will understand every client has individual needs and circumstances that will determine exactly what the best course of action is to take to accomplish their real estate goals.
If you are planning on hiring a REALTOR® to help you buy and /or sell real estate, why not ask him or her on the spot for the phone numbers of a few clients they have worked with. After all, you are considering hiring someone to work for you, so finding out about their past performance in a face to face type of scenario can test their confidence and professionalism.
All real estate agents have written and sometimes video testimonials and could possibly delay your question so that they can prime the person you are going to call with what to say.
If your Calgary REALTOR® really walks the walk, they should know that when they give you a few past clients phone numbers the testimonials they provide will be glowing reviews because of the referrers dedication to providing only the best level of service and advice the industry has to offer.
Q1. b) What's the bottom line?
Never hire a REALTOR® without doing a thorough interview and checking up on their references. Nothing substitutes for a testimonial in real life over the phone, but if you can't get that then at a bare minimum make sure they at least have a good selection of video testimonials and written testimonials for you to review.
Make a fully informed decision and hire a Calgary REALTOR® whom you feel is the most knowledgeable, professional, energetic, educated and experienced to help you accomplish your real estate plans!
