3 important aspects that you should look at before choosing a real estate agency

Category: General

Do you want to sell your house? Well, you need to know the fundamental values that a real estate agent or real estate company to whom you are going to entrust this very important task should have. We detail you below:

Honesty

Yes, we could put this word in capital letters: HONESTY. And in a sector as competitive as this, it seems that anything goes. "Do you want to sell your property? I promise to do it in a month", "I can get you €275,000 for this apartment", "I will do the entire process for you for free", etc. Some examples that are heard more than we would like and that bring numerous disappointments. So do NOT believe these arguments lightly. Do you know that on average in Spain it takes 4-5 months to find a buyer? Trust that advisor who studies the market well, who tells you the real price of your house (not the one you want to hear) and the one who looks for potential clients.

On this last point we want to make a point. Remember that it is always the owner who decides the final price, but the agent must advise him and point out the trend in the market, so that he has all the information and makes a good decision.

Long history in the market

A consolidated track record, with an established team. Here you should also pay special attention to those “professionals” who are only looking for a commission with little knowledge of the real estate world. On the other hand, those large companies that seem very reliable at first glance, but then assign you a person without any experience or training.

What promotional actions are you going to carry out?

As we said at the beginning, it is a very important decision, so do not hold back any questions. You can openly ask him what tools he is going to use to sell your house. Do you have a web portal? Social networks? Do you use print media to reach local customers?, etc.

We hope these tips have been helpful to you. laHome family is at your disposal to assist you and listen to all your needs.
