How to hire the right Realtor

February 28, 2023 by Christen Ward Leave a Comment

When looking for a realtor in the Greater Baton Rouge area, it is important to find someone who is knowledgeable about the local market and has a proven track record of success. Here are a few tips to help you find the right realtor for you:

  1. Look for a realtor with experience: Choose a realtor who has been in the business for a while and has a proven track record of helping buyers and sellers successfully navigate the Greater Baton Rouge real estate market. Look for a realtor who has experience in the neighborhoods and price ranges that are relevant to your search.
  2. Check for credentials: Make sure the realtor you choose is licensed and has the necessary credentials to work in the Greater Baton Rouge area. They should be a member of the National Association of Realtors and the Baton Rouge Board of Realtors. These organizations have strict standards for membership and require that realtors adhere to a code of ethics.
  3. Look for good communication skills: A good realtor will be able to communicate effectively with you throughout the buying or selling process. They should be responsive to your needs and be able to provide clear and timely information. The buying or selling process can be stressful, so it is important to work with a realtor who can provide clear and timely communication, and understand your needs.
  4. Check online reviews: Look at online reviews from past clients to get an idea of what their experience was like working with the realtor. Pay attention to both positive and negative reviews, and see if the realtor was able to resolve any issues that came up. This will give you an idea of how the realtor operates, and if their past clients have had a positive experience working with them.
  5. Ask for referrals: Ask friends, family, or colleagues for recommendations of realtors they have worked with in the past. Personal referrals can be a great way to find a realtor you can trust. Ask if they would recommend the realtor to someone else and why.
  6. Know their Market Knowledge: A good realtor should have a deep understanding of the Greater Baton Rouge area, including the different neighborhoods, schools, and amenities. They should also be able to provide you with valuable insights into the current market trends, and give you an accurate estimate of your property’s value.
  7. Understand their negotiation skills: A good realtor should have strong negotiation skills to help you get the best deal possible. They should be able to represent your interests and help you navigate the buying or selling process.

By following these tips, you can find a good realtor in the Greater Baton Rouge area who has the experience, credentials, communication skills, market knowledge and positive reputation you need to help you buy or sell your home successfully. It is important to do your research and find someone who is knowledgeable about the local market and has a track record of success to ensure that your buying or selling experience is a positive one.

Hands Down the Best Realtor I’ve Worked With

Christen is hands down the best realtor I've worked with! My boyfriend and I moved to the area from out of state and she made the whole process easy for us. She knows the area very well and was able to help us to find the best location for our needs. She was always three steps ahead of us and had everything we needed set up before we even thought about it. I would recommend her to anyone and we will definitely be calling her when it's time to sell in the future!
