Philosophy and personal qualities: Is the agent genuinely concerned with helping you achieve your goals and dreams? Are you instinctively comfortable with there approach to this important milestone in your family's life? Do they make you feel like you're important, or do they pass you off to a novice or assistant agent? Are you confident that they understand and respect your wants and needs? Will they adjust their schedule to accommodate yours? Professional knowledge: Can they clearly explain the complex forms, formulas, financial considerations and liabilities that you will face as a home seller or buyer? Are they a master of detail who won't let anything slip between the cracks. Are they a strong negotiator who will advocate industriously for you? Integrity: What is the agent's professional reputation? Ask if she's ever been involved in a complaint by a consumer or other agent to the Association of REALTORS®. Is this someone you would feel comfortable referring to a loved one or friend? Are you satisfied that YOUR interests will always be her primary goal? Community involvement: Does the agent really care about other people, or is that just a sales pitch? You can determine this by asking about her volunteer activity in her community.
