Finding ‘a’ real estate agent isn’t that difficult. Many agents work extremely hard. In order to weed through and secure the best of the best and the most productive, below should be on your screening check list:
- Cut through the sales hype.
- Ask about their values, approach to business.

For Luxury Real Estate Buyers:
Is critical to find an agent who listens to what’s important to you. You will want an agent who is prepared and well organized to give you advise on the community, someone who is well versed on the area’s Luxury market, can offer suggestions on lodging, car rental, and private airport information should you require it. If one is slow to gather information and slow to respond from the start it isn’t likely to get any better.

Be prepared to go through presentation materials heralding all the ways your luxury home will be marketed. There are certainly agents and real estate brokerages which do more than others, and have higher quality marketing, tools, and materials than others. Not everyone has the same areas of marketing or marketing budget. Even for the most spectacular homes on the planet takes hard work, dedication, seasoned expertise, and connections to bring about a successful and sale.
