Before you hire anyone to sell your home, interview them. That includes me.
Ask me how I'd price it and what information I'm using. Ask what I suggest fixing and what I'd leave alone. Ask how we'll communicate, and what happens if the plan needs to change.
You should be able to understand the answers without a real estate dictionary. If the answers feel unclear, that's useful information before you sign anything.
I'm Fred Moore with Keller Williams Legacy Partners. If you're planning a move in the Farmington Valley or Central Connecticut, let's start with your questions. I'd rather earn the listing by answering you plainly than by rushing you.
A good interview is a chance to hear how someone thinks about your house before you hire them.
What would your first question be for me? When you're ready, start on the seller guide or contact me. Local context for Simsbury is on the Simsbury guide.
Frequently asked questions
What questions should I ask a listing agent in Connecticut?
Ask how they'd price your home and what information they're using, what they suggest fixing versus leaving alone, how you'll communicate, and what happens if the plan needs to change. The answers should make sense without industry jargon.
Should I interview more than one agent?
Interview whoever you're considering, including me. The point is to hear clear answers about pricing, prep, communication and what happens when plans change before you hire anyone.
What if I don't understand the agent's answers?
That matters. You should be able to understand the answers without a real estate dictionary. If you can't, keep asking or keep looking.
General information only. Interviewing an agent does not create an agency relationship until you have a written agreement. Equal Housing Opportunity.
