Real Estate Agents-What distinguishes the Great Ones?

The writer is a long time Realtor with Prudential Carolinas Realty in Charlotte, North Carolina.  As a matter of fact I’ve been with them for 16 years, represented thousands of clients, and continue to be the number one agent in the Ballantyne Area office, the top 1% in the nation and the number two Prudential agent in all of the Charlotte market!  So does that make me a great agent?  What defines a great agent?  Well you can ask my clients, visit my website or read the book "Good to Great" and you just might learn what makes a company just that: great.  I have a business model that understands what our clients need and deserve.

Have you ever relocated from one city to another and purchased a home?  In most cases you don’t know a soul, can’t find the best medical folks to help you or your family or know where the best schools are.  I am the first Real Estate contact you make after your company relocation department assigns you.  Sometimes the chemistry isn’t the best because your agent doesn’t always listen.  The great agents (and there are many) listen more than they talk, make on target recommendations, but the most important element of a great Realtor is to tell their clients what not to buy rather than what to buy.  

Do you want to know what makes a Great Agent?  Call me or comment here and I’d be delighted to discuss it further.
