Do Some Research Online

Do some online research to find out more about any agent you are considering. A good agent will not only have multiple good reviews but also plenty of experience working in your local area.

Visit Open Houses

Visit a few open houses and check out the real estate agents showcasing the homes. If you see an agent who is professional, friendly and attentive, talk to him or her about your needs. If the agent is easy to communicate with and you feel comfortable with him or her, ask for a business card and then do further research.
