Making the decision to sell your home and starting the search for your next residence is undoubtedly a defining moment in the life of any homeowner. The anticipation and excitement of a new beginning is at its peak. However, with this decision comes a lot of questions, uncertainties and apprehensions. Rest assured, this is perfectly normal.
That’s why it’s so important to surround yourself with the right people and to choose your real estate broker carefully and with full knowledge of the facts.
When the time comes to conduct a search to find the broker that will be able to carry out our project, key points must be considered.
Whether it’s for the sale of a house or the purchase of a new one, reputation and word-of-mouth play a key role when choosing a real estate broker.
When brokers do an impeccable job, they build up a bank of clients who do not hesitate to refer them as soon as the opportunity arises. Ask around among your acquaintances. Do they have a particular name to recommend? Someone who has given them outstanding service and has lived up to the important task they’ve given them?
Another way to choose the best real estate broker for you is to search the web and social networks. Citizens’ groups in the area you are planning to move to, or from, will have many real estate broker referrals to suggest to you. See which one comes up the most often and do a more thorough investigation to see what testimonials, reviews, satisfaction levels and willingness of their clients to recommend them with their eyes closed!
Another aspect not to be overlooked is the real estate agency to which the broker is attached. A banner that is recognized for the excellence of its services, for its longevity in the real estate field and for the exceptional quality of the training its brokers receive is a sign that does not lie.
In a market where everything can change in a few moments, it is important to be able to trust the speed of reaction of your real estate broker. Does he or she respond promptly to your questions and requests, whether in person or in writing, and this, from the very first time you contact him or her? It is also essential that they be as quick as lightning to take action when an opportunity arises. And that they have an incredible flair for anticipating what is coming and what is brewing in a volatile and often unpredictable market.
In order to be efficient and to successfully carry out the projects of their clients, real estate brokers must have a thorough knowledge of the different neighborhoods of the Montreal metropolis. Whether it’s for the sale of a current home or the purchase of a new one, a real estate broker’s knowledge of the various Montreal neighborhoods and the characteristics of each one (essential services such as schools, daycares, grocery stores, parks, etc., as well as the lifestyle of its citizens and the various activities offered) will make him or her an ally of choice. This will allow the broker to quickly define the neighbourhood that will best suit his or her clients. They will be able to guide them in this decisive decision and will be able to show them why it will suit them perfectly.
As we know, today, everything takes place on the Web. The vast majority of buyers and sellers of real estate properties conduct their research there. It is essential, even crucial, that the broker we choose be omnipresent. A professional website and an adequate and punctual presence on the main social networks are a guarantee of success and an irrefutable proof that the broker is aware of the current market as well as where the potential buyers and sellers are.
Our first reaction is often the right one. How do you feel when you first contact your real estate broker? Even more important, how do you feel during your first face-to-face meeting? Our intuition, that famous little inner voice, rarely lets us down when we pay attention to it. It is essential that you feel comfortable with your broker from the start. That you feel listened to and supported. In short, the moment you are in their presence, you should feel like you are the most important person in their eyes, nothing less!
