Wendy and Andrew Alpaugh are a married couple who recently bought their dream home in a quiet neighborhood. They want to share their tips on how to choose the right realtor from their experience in finding a suitable realtor. Here is what they have to say:


- Do your research. Before you contact any realtor, do some online research on their credentials, reviews, and track record. Look for realtors who have experience in the area and type of property you are interested in. You can also ask for referrals from friends, family, or coworkers who have worked with realtors before.

- Interview several realtors. Once you have a shortlist of potential realtors, schedule interviews with them to see if they are a good fit for you. Ask them about their availability, communication style, fees, and marketing strategy. You should also ask them for references from previous clients and check them out.

- Trust your gut. After interviewing several realtors, you should have a sense of who you feel comfortable and confident with. Trust your gut feeling and choose the realtor who understands your needs, preferences, and budget. You should also feel that they are honest, professional, and reliable.

- Communicate clearly. Once you have chosen your realtor, make sure you communicate clearly with them throughout the process. Tell them what you are looking for, what your expectations are, and what your timeline is. You should also give them feedback on the properties they show you and let them know if anything changes in your situation.

- Be respectful and cooperative. Remember that your realtor is working hard to help you find your ideal home. Be respectful and cooperative with them and follow their advice and guidance. They have the expertise and experience to negotiate the best deal for you and handle any issues that may arise.


Wendy and Andrew Alpaugh hope that their tips will help you choose the right realtor for your home buying journey. They are very happy with their realtor and their new home and wish you all the best.
