People often don’t realize the amount of local community knowledge a Realtor has. If you need to know about the local preschool situation, where to get the best cup of coffee within earshot of a specific address, where to get free Internet while you enjoy a hot beverage or quick lunch, or where the best morning bun in town is served, ask a Realtor.
Many times you wouldn’t know this as a home buyer or seller while out shopping for a Realtor. It seems that many agents’ marketing materials don’t seem to get this point across – that not only is this agent a master at closing sales in a particular neighborhood or area, he or she is also an expert at all things local. At Commonwealth, our agents are community experts. In addition to being real estate professionals, they also know the right plumbers, contractors, inspectors, landscapers, cleaning services, florists, and interior decorators. You name it.
Commonwealth agents are neighborhood connoisseurs, specialists, experts. Of course you want an agent with an impeccable track record of selling houses in your area or area of interest. You want a master negotiator, a well respected and well connected professional. But you also want someone who’s going to be able to either tell you exactly what it’s like to live somewhere, how close life’s essentials are, and so forth or connect you directly with the people who can answer those questions.
Buying or selling a home is still one of the largest transactions a person will take part in in their lifetime. Where you live is an essential part of your being – and can have serious consequences on your family’s future. Our agents don’t lose sight of this high-touch aspect to being an agent – that sometimes through all the complications of a jargon-filled transaction, what a consumer really needs is for someone to understand their more intangible needs that help them realize whether or not they can actually live in a particular home or neighborhood. This is one of our greatest strengths as real estate professionals.
