What to ask a real estate agent<br />
Selling a home is a big life decision, both<br />
financially and emotionally. <strong>The</strong> journey<br />
can be a roller coaster, which is why<br />
finding a licensed real estate agent you feel<br />
comfortable with is so important.<br />
“Remember, you’re looking for the<br />
person who you’re going to trust to sell<br />
what’s likely to be your biggest asset. <strong>The</strong>ir<br />
success (or failure) will have a marked<br />
impact on your new life plan,” says the Real<br />
Estate Authority (REA).<br />
New Zealand has about 15,000 real estate<br />
agents who help people navigate big-deal<br />
transactions every day.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> trick is to find the one that will be<br />
best for your situation,” he says.<br />
You need someone who understands<br />
what it takes to sell a property like yours<br />
and a proven track record to show for it.<br />
You also need to feel comfortable with<br />
them personally – if you don’t find them<br />
pleasant to deal with then buyers may not<br />
enjoy the experience either.<br />
If you’re not sure how to get the ball<br />
rolling, ask the agent the following<br />
questions:<br />
- What do you know about my<br />
neighbourhood? How are sales in this area<br />
and who is buying?<br />
- Do you work independently or with<br />
other agents?<br />
- What kind of advertising or marketing<br />
do you use – and which ones will work for<br />
my property? What extra marketing costs<br />
will I have to pay?<br />
- What are your commission rates? Are<br />
you open to negotiation?<br />
- Do you have testimonials or references<br />
from people whose properties you have<br />
sold in the last three months?<br />
throughout - What do you Christchurch<br />
recommend I do to<br />
prepare my home for sale?<br />
- Why should I hire you?<br />
Asking these questions helps you<br />

form a picture of the agent’s experience,<br />
knowledge and how they structure their<br />
business.<br />
Remember that you can negotiate on the<br />
marketing costs and commission – don’t be<br />
afraid to ask the agents if they are interested<br />
in an incentive-based commission, where<br />
they will earn more commission if they sell<br />
your property above a certain price.<br />
Once you’ve found the agent you think<br />
you’d like to work with, check them out<br />
on the Real Estate Authority’s (REA)<br />
online public register, which will tell you<br />
if the agent holds a current licence. This is<br />
important because it’s illegal to carry out<br />
real estate agency work without a licence<br />
and if you deal with an unlicensed person<br />
the REA will be unable to help you if things<br />
go wrong.<br />
When you’ve decided on an agent, the<br />
terms and conditions of your contract will<br />
be set out in an agency agreement that<br />
you both sign. This is a legal document,<br />
so make sure you get advice from a lawyer<br />
and that you understand your rights and<br />
responsibilities.<br />
