No matter if you’re buying or selling a home, the real estate professional you chose is one of the most important decisions you can make during the process. Sure, most agents know the lingo and can sweet talk their way through the process. However, you should expect much more from your agent.

The housing crisis certainly made people more aware of how complicated the real estate market is, and how important it is to understand it. There are questions that your real estate agent needs to be able to answer to make sure you make the right decisions. Some of those questions are:

What impact does the movement in mortgage interest rates have on buyer demand?
With home prices increasing rapidly, are we headed toward another housing bubble?
Do you need a 20% down payment to purchase a home?
Why can't we list at a higher price and drop it later if necessary?

Make sure your agent can answer these questions intelligently while being able to explain them simply. At Real Estate BCS, we understand the market, and we can help you understand it as well so that you can make the best decisions, whether buying, selling, or leasing a home in the Bryan-College Station area.
