The Seller’s choice of who they hire as their listing agent is critical to the entire experience when selling a home. The individual that is selected is going to be involved in preparing the home for sale, establishing a listing price, marketing the property, and negotiating the transaction.

Some Sellers might be tempted to hire a friend who has a real estate license or someone else they know. The question should always be asked, will that friend turn out to be the right agent for the job?

Other times, a Seller may be wowed by the agent who suggested the highest list price for the property and base their decision purely on that information.
