Oakland California Realtors-The Most Important Issues

Posted Feb 3, 2007 @ 4:08 pm, Viewed by 660 Visitors, Read 663 Times.

There are many factors to weigh when deciding which Oakland Realtor should represent you in the purchase or sale of property. I have learned that we must be able to listen just as well as we need to talk. Integrity is crucial as well, because we work in an industry that deals with large transactions which have a big effect on our clients' lives. Trust is the foundation that can not only lead to a closed transaction, but a long-term relationship which will support both the Realtor and the client. When I meet a potential client, I am not only thinking about how I can serve them immediately, but I am also interested in fostering a relationship with them that will allow their friends and family to experience the same service that they can receive.

Choosing a Realtor with a brokerage that has a solid reputation is also important. With so many brokerages, there is a lot of variation in terms of resources that are available to the agents.

Perhaps the most important factor is whether or not you genuinely trust the person to put your interests above all others, even his/her own. This is known as a "Fiduciary" responsibility, and is the basis for a Realtor/client relationship. Your Realtor should also be patient, transparent, able to communicate and educate while providing service.
