“You’ve been talking about questions to ask when you’re deciding on an agent to sell your home. What about just asking how long they’ve been in real estate?”
***ANSWER:
Thursday, one agent who was also a mortgage broker (bad news already!) told me it was illegal for the bank/seller to ask his client to prequalify with a certain lender. He also insisted it was illegal for him to share confidential info about his client even with his client’s permission. He added, “I’ve been licensed since 1961 and I know what I’m talking about.”
I assume he was right…about being licensed since 1961.
But he was dead wrong about the two other points. And it probably cost his clients the home.
Moral Of The Story: Don’t confuse longevity with experience or success.
