Research the Agent Listing the House

It’s important to take a look at the real estate agent listing the home because they could be a newer agent. It’s a good idea to check references if possible, but find out how the sellers found their real estate agent. Take note of online reviews, particularly how many they have more so than negative reviews since those should be taken with a grain of salt.

Find out what other houses they have listed because their experience in a certain price range of homes will make a difference if the home you’re looking at is outside of their typical range.
