This is compulsory and should never be taken for granted, especially with rising fraud levels in the property market.

Finding the right fit for your requirements
Every real estate agency specialises in buying and selling. What you need to look out for when entrusting your property needs to a specific agency is the level of service being extended to you. Selling your home is a personal project that involves lots of planning, maintenance work and positioning your home to be as enticing as possible for sale. The right property practitioner will know how to play to your home's strengths when listing and photographing for advertising purposes. They can also guide you on the best practices for staging your home for sale on show days.
When preparing to buy a property, you need to outline your budget, list of non-negotiables, preferred areas and be transparent with your property practitioner about realistic expectations when it comes to timelines. Transfer of properties, title deeds, zoning laws and more could affect the outcome of when a property is officially yours and your agent should be able to provide you with an accurate timeframe of this.
Be practical with surveying the agency's current marketing strategies
The best way to gauge if a property agency or team of real estate experts will be on your wavelength is to look at their current website and marketing material. An agency that keeps tabs on trending topics in real estate, inflation rates, interior tips and more will be more likely to provide customised advice. It is an indication of an agency that aligns itself with the times and shares valuable insights into everything that property management encompasses.
