First Time Home Buyers – Finding a Realtor®

Finding your Perfect Fit in a Realtor®

Buying your first home is like going on a blind date – you don’t know what you’re getting into, but you’re hoping for the best. And just like with dating, finding the right realtor is key. So, here are some tips on what to look for in a realtor, and maybe a few jokes along the way.

First up, experience. You want a realtor who’s been around the block a few times, but not so many times that they’re stuck in the ’90s. If their marketing strategy involves faxes and carrier pigeons, run the other way.

Communication is also important. If your realtor takes longer to respond than it takes a sloth to get from one tree to another, that’s a bad sign. You want someone who’s responsive, available, and doesn’t make you feel like you’re constantly waiting for a text back from your crush.

Professionalism is a must. You don’t want a realtor who’s shadier than a palm tree. You want someone who’s ethical, honest, and won’t leave you feeling like you need a shower after every interaction. If they’re more concerned with their commission than your happiness, it’s time to move on.

Knowledge is power, and your realtor should be knowledgeable. If they don’t know the difference between a raised ranch and a bungalow, that’s not a good sign. You want someone who knows the ins and outs of the real estate market, including current trends, property values, and zoning laws. If they’re not up-to-date on the latest technology, like online listings and virtual home tours, they might as well be using a rotary phone.

Last but not least, personal fit is important. You want someone who you feel comfortable working with. If they make you feel like you’re being interrogated every time you meet with them, that’s not a good sign. You want someone who’s patient, understanding, and won’t judge you for your questionable taste in wallpaper.

In conclusion, finding the right realtor is crucial when buying your first home. You want someone with experience, good communication skills, professionalism, knowledge, and a good personal fit. Otherwise, you might as well be trying to navigate the real estate market blindfolded. So, take your time, do your research, and find someone who you trust. And don’t forget to keep your sense of humor intact – after all, laughter is the best medicine, especially when it comes to the stress of home buying.

Team vanRahan has a one-on-one First Time Home Buyer Seminar that you can attend in person or via Zoom, as well as a First Time Home Buyer Workbook that we’d be happy to give free of charge. Get in touch and let’s chat!
