ARE YOU LOOKING FOR THE RIGHT AGENT FOR SELLING OR BUYING OF PROPERTIES

Finding the right real estate agent to help you sell your home (or to help you buy one, in the case of a buyer’s agent ) is everything. Real estate transactions are complicated, and if you’re like most home buyers, all your assets are on the line. But all real estate agents aren’t created equal. Some realtors get personally involved every step of the way, while some farm out a lot of the work to other brokers. The amount of formal education a realtor has, the knowledge they have about the neighborhoods you want to buy into and the real estate listings they have access to vary widely.

Before you get started, it's important to understand exactly what (or who) you’re shopping for. Many people use the terms "realtor", "real estate agent" and "real estate broker" interchangeably, but they aren’t mutually inclusive. A real estate agent is a person who has a real estate license from the state in which they practice (keep in mind, though, that the requirements for getting a real estate license in most states are pretty minimal). A realtor is a real estate agent who has earned additional certification from the National Association of Realtors. And a real estate broker is a realtor who has yet more training and a different license than either real estate agents or realtors.

Confused yet? For the most part, the exact title of the real estate professional you work with isn’t as important as the level of commitment, energy and local knowledge he or she may have. But trying to find the real estate agent who embodies all the above can still be a challenge. Read over the following tips for choosing a realtor (or real estate agent, or broker) and you’ll be ahead of the game:

• There are a few types of real estate agencies out there – small ones, large ones, franchises and independent agencies – but don’t get too hung up on the differences. The individual agent is more important than the real estate agency.
• Know what type of representation you’re looking for. Most real estate agents are seller’s agents, meaning they only represent sellers’ interests (to the disadvantage of buyers). This is great if you’re a seller, but if you’re looking to buy a home inquire about buyer’s agents – brokers who represent the buyer’s interests in real estate transactions – at any agency you look at.
• To find the right agency, do some legwork. There are lots of real estate agencies listed in the property magazines and online. But if you pick one at random you’ll probably regret it. Explore the neighborhoods you’re interested in buying into and look for realtors / brokers nearby.
• Search for real estate agents, not individual homes or properties. You may be looking through your newspaper’s real estate section one day and fall in love with a home that a particular real estate agent is listing. However, the agent might tell you that property is taken, but they have others you’d love. Less reputable agencies will often use this bait and switch trick to lure in customers. Chances are you’re not going to get the first home you fall for anyway. The long-term relationship you have with your real estate agent is more important than any particular home.
• Look for experience. The real estate profession has a high rate of turnover, which means lots of untested agents are constantly moving in and out of agencies. If you’re considering working with a particular realtor or broker, ask how long they’ve been practicing. If it’s been less than two years, keep looking.
• Look for commitment. Many real estate agents only practice on a part-time basis and they might not have the time or drive to give you the attention you deserve. Also, many brokers are only interested in representing properties within a certain price range. If your home isn’t in it, they might not give it their all.
• Interview real estate agents you’re interested in working with. Experts suggest you sit down with at least three prospective realtors, so you can get a feel for them and what they can do for you. Don’t be afraid to ask them how well they know your neighborhood and exactly how often you’ll hear from them. Ask for references and check them. Evaluate prospective agents based on personality as well. Your relationship with your real estate agent will be a working one, and if you don’t think you’d work well with him or her, it won’t work out.
• Ask friends to refer you to real estate agents they’ve had good experiences with.
• If you’re looking for a realtor, you can start your search at the National Association of Realtors’ website; they have listings of realtors in your area.
• Select a real estate agent who can work with your schedule. If you can only see homes on evenings and weekends, you won’t go very far with an agent who only works days.
• Ask any prospective real estate agent what they’ll do to sell your home. It sounds elementary, but not all agents work the same way. Some brokers will advertise your property and spread the word to other agents they know. Others will just add your property to the MLS (Multiple Listing Service, a directory of homes for sale) and wait for inquiries. The more proactive your realtor, the better. 

Choosing the right realtor is the first and essential step for getting your needs or wants achieved.

TIPS TO BUY A PROPERTY TO AVOID FRAUDSTERS

Once you decide to buy a property you would have to look for a number of things, which are, mentioned hereafter. But the first thing is to decide the need for which the property is to be bought.  What kind of property do you intend to buy is an important factor when searching. Based on these details you can draw a list of your preference, which should list the following;  

• Property type (Residential, commercial, etc.)  
• Accommodation   
• Area of the Plot  
• Preferred floor·  
• Preferred Location (park/road facing etc.) ·  
• Preferred Locality Property ownership (lease/free hold)   
• Price range  
• Room sizes  
• Builder's/Govt. properties  
• Parking  
• Servant Quarter  
• Other requirements : like distances from Bus Station (BRT), Airport, Schools,  
• Markets etc. 

Here it is essential to mention that it is very rarely possible to get everything (listed above) to your choice in one property but you can try to find out the maximum of above while selecting your property. You would have to compromise on number of counts depending upon constraints like price and locations. Remember, more the positive points, more would be the price.

Once done with the above, you should decide the time of your purchase : If you need to shift into the property you are looking for immediately, you will have limited time to fine tune the search and would have to settle for properties which are ready to be moved into. But, if you have sufficient time, you can book a property under construction or at an early stage of construction and get the minor additions and alterations done according to your choice. Similarly, you would have time to see a number of proposals available for sale in different localities and then choose the best suitable to you.

Best way to find the right kind of property is to check up with real estate agents, which enlist number of properties. You can short list details of properties given by real estate agents, and owners posted on sites and then at a suitable time and day you can visit these properties. It is advisable to fix up appointments with owners and real estate agents before you visit them. You can then assign your marks to these properties as per the list prepared of your choice. Once through with this process which sometimes takes number of visits and enough time, you would be able to pinpoint which is the best proposal for you and your requirement.

After you have decided the suitability of the properties seen, you can select the best ones in your wish-list.
Then checkup the following:  

• Who is the promoter?  
• Has the real estate agent who has shown the property to you, given you the complete information?  
• Is the property title clear?  
• Are there any other complications? (you can check these things from anyone you know in the vicinity of the property in your wishlist)  
• Whether the price is right? (Again this can be verified from people in the vicinity)  
• Who are the other flat owners in the building? (if any)  
• What are the common areas and what is status of ownership?  
• Permissions required from Competent Authorities?  
• Credentials of the Promoters? (You can check this by asking the builder about his other completed projects and you can speak to the flat owners living in those projects)  
• Construction specifications? (you can show the property to some qualified Architect)  
• Ask for a draft of Agreement to Sell to be signed (if you intend to enter into a transaction) Once you have decided to buy a property after checking all the above details you should try to get all the terms and conditions of sale and purchase in advance before you part with any amount to the seller. You must try to reduce everything to Black and White so that there are least problems later on.  
• And above all don't try to save a few thousand Naira on registration process of your property. Go in for proper Sale-Deed (if possible) through a qualified Advocate or experienced Document Writer in the industry.
