10 Questions for buyers to ask their realtor

1. Tell me about your experience working with buyers.
   
2. What neighborhoods and geographic areas do you specialize in?
   
3. Do you have a Website? What information can I find there?
   
4. How will you keep me informed during my home search and throughout the transaction?
   
5. Do you have a staff or a team? If so, what roles will they play in my transaction?
   
6. Will you show me properties from other companies' listings? (Some real estate companies do offer their buyers' agents a higher commission if they are able to sell "in-house" listings. In those instances, there can be added incentive to limit the range of homes you are shown. This may affect your home search and how much your agent's fee will be.)
   
7. Will you represent me exclusively, or will you also represent the seller?
   
8. How will you get paid?
9. What distinguishes you from other real estate agents?
   
10. May I contact some of your recent clients as references?
