What to Ask When Choosing a Sedona Real Estate Agent / Realtor
When considering Sedona AZ Realty, be it homes, lots, acreage or specialty realty like horse property, you’ll want to know that you’re working with pros. Not a part-time agent. A realty team is best suited to adapt to your schedule and show you property when you want to see it.
How long have you been a Realtor? Is residential real estate sales your full time employment?
Susan began in 1986 and Troy in 1998. Selling Sedona real estate is our full time job.
Experience doesn’t guarantee skill however most of a real estate agents education is learned on the job.
Do you have any designations or certifications? For an all around certification, look for the Certified Residential Specialist (CRS). Most CRS’s have demonstrated more than 10 years experience and performance and have completed a significant amount of classroom work. Nationally less than 3% of all Realtors are a CRS. The number is even lower for Sedona AZ Realtors. Another designation that you’ll want your real estate agent to have is the Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR). A Sedona Realtor with an ABR designation has formal classroom training in how to best represent home buyers. They must also have completed a number of sales as a Buyer Representative. Nationally, less than 4% of all Realtors are ABR’s. Susan and I have both designations.
