I am a real estate agent as well...ask around and get some references. Agents are often judgemental- and they want to steal you away from whoever you are working with now. Not all do it, but a lot do. I dont know why we dont require agents to have a college business degree before selling homes. With all the money invlved it makes sense. As it is , some gal can study and pass the state test and take occaional review courses. Its rediciulous. You hire whoever has the best schmeeel....the best looks, the right story....but look deeper- education, time in the business, good references, moral charactor, thats the agent you can trust and feel good about handeling your affairs.
