Question number 10, and our last of the 10 questions to ask the real estate agent when viewing a property for sale - Why did the home seller hire you?
Although this might not purely be a home buying question, as a potential future client (either as a buyer or seller), wouldn't it be nice to already have a short-list of real estate agents to reach out to?
What better way to start a relationship than at the show house of the house you're about to buy! And based on that question alone, how high will the odds be that this agent will actually follow up with you?
In the end, as an interested home buyer, you want to make sure all your (basic) questions are answered.
If it turns out that the house caught your attention, you'll at least have a good idea of the marketing and/or price activity of the property ahead of any negotiations which may follow.
