A great real estate agent needs to hustle! They need to be tenacious in getting potential buyers into your home, networking with leads, using all social media platforms and getting your property seen and marketed in its best possible light to as many people as possible.
Your real estate agent needs to be persistent while being polite and friendly. A great agent will work tirelessly to sell your home at the best possible price.

02
Interest in the Local Housing Market
Your real estate agent needs to have a keen interest in the housing market and know the local area. They should ideally invest in property themselves and need to follow the market and be completely up to date on current pricing, sales in the area, and what potential buyers in the area are looking for in a home.
They will easily be able to advise you on things that you can do to your property to obtain a better price and sell your home faster. (We offer a free eBook with many suggestions to help present your home and sell your home faster, you can get it HERE for free)

Great Communication
In Real Estate, agents need the gift of the gab. They need to be able to clearly communicate with you as the seller and with potential buyers. Your agent also needs to have great listening skills and be diligent in reporting back to you on any potential buyer activity, contracts, and queries. They should be able to answer any questions you have, as well as from buyers, quickly, and in terms you can easily understand.
