With the warmer weather and longer days, spring is traditionally one of the busiest seasons for the real estate market. If you’re considering selling your home, now is the time to start planning.

When it comes to selling your home, it’s important to choose the right real estate agent to represent you. But with so many options, how do you find the best fit? Here are five things to look for in a seller’s agent to help you make an informed decision:

Experience
Look for an agent with a proven track record of successfully selling homes in your area. If your agent has experience in a particular neighborhood, they will have a better idea of how to price your home ­– ultimately getting you the best price in the fewest number of days on the market.

Marketing Skills
One of the most critical aspects of selling your home is marketing it to qualified buyers. Ensure your agent has a strong marketing plan to attract potential buyers. This includes professional photography and knowing how to preset your home during showings. Look around their website to see how they showcase other homes they have listed to get an idea of their skill level.

Strong Network
An agent with a wide network of contacts, including other real estate agents and industry professionals, can be incredibly valuable when setting agent open houses and enlisting help for repairs.

Communication
Finding an agent who will keep you informed every step of the way is important. Look for someone responsive and willing to answer your questions and address any concerns.

Negotiation Skills
Finally, look for an agent who is a skilled negotiator. They should effectively communicate your needs and wants to the buyer and help to secure the best deal for you.
