Why the North GA Real Estate Company You Choose Matters

March 27, 2011 By admin

A lot of potential homebuyers, when they look around for the right real estate agent, might be tempted to wonder whether the North GA Real Estate company they choose to go with matters at all. Sure, some of them have bigger names than others, or better marketing materials, but doesn’t it really just come down to working with an agent who’s a good fit?

In many ways, it does. Choosing the right real estate professional help you is far more important than worrying about the company listed on their business cards. Still, there are reasons that the agency or brokerage firm you choose matters.

That’s because, in a way, buying a home is a bit like purchasing a car. Your real estate agent isn’t going to have built your house any more than your auto dealer will have put together your next four door sedan. So why choose any one dealership over the other? You might have some ideas about pricing or location, but the best reason is that you think you’ll get better service at one or another.

The same is true of different real estate companies. Because each has its own hiring and training practices, commission structures, standard contracts, etc., different firms tend to develop different personalities over time. One company might hire a certain kind of real estate agent, one that’s patient rather than aggressive for example, versus another. Or, they could specialize in working with a certain kind of buyer, or helping to find a particular kind of property. These are just a couple of examples, but the point is that every real estate agency you check out is going to have its own distinctive feel.

Well this ever actually matter to you, as a home buyer? It might not, but it’s worth taking the time to investigate a few different options just in case. In the same way that you wouldn’t want to hire the first realtor that comes along, neither should you sign any agreement with the company until you know there a good fit for you.

Harry Norman, Realtors is Georgia’s biggest, oldest, and most respected residential North Georgia Real Estate Company. Get in touch with one of our agents today… we can help you buy or sell the best in Big Canoe homes.

Finding the Right Big Canoe GA Realtor: 3 Red Flags

March 26, 2011 By admin

After you decide to buy or sell Big Canoe real estate, finding the right realtor is probably going to be one of the first things that comes to mind. There are plenty of us out there, and meeting with someone is never farther than a phone call or e-mail away.

Unfortunately, however, not everyone is as patient or professional as they should be, and having the wrong realtor can turn the whole experience of buying or selling your home into a nightmare. With that in mind, here are three red flags when it comes to meeting realtors. If you notice any of them, be very careful about going any further:

The realtor seems to be rushing you. Chances are, this is going to be a very big decision for you. You want a realtor who understands that and is willing to take the time necessary to get it right. If you feel rushed during the first meetings, imagine what the pressure will be like after you’ve seen a few properties and met with a couple of buyers.

The realtor ignores your preferences. Sometimes, there are good reasons for showing a potential homebuyer properties that are outside of their preferred area or budget. If your realtor seems to blatantly disregard what you’re looking for, however, or just doesn’t take the time to listen, then it’s not worth investing anymore of your time and energy.

You can’t reach your realtor for long stretches of time. Granted, if you’re trying to call your real estate agent at 3 o’clock in the morning, the problem might be with you. But in most cases, you should have a good flow of information, advice, and opinions back-and-forth. You’re not just paying for expertise, but also service, so make sure you’re getting that part of the deal.

If you want the Big Canoe, GA realty team with the most experience and best customer service, then Harry Norman, Realtors is your only choice. We have helped thousands of people just like you to buy and sell homes throughout the Big Canoe area.

3 Questions to Ask Any Realtor You Meet With

March 24, 2011 By admin

When it comes to finding the right Big Canoe realtor to help you buy or sell a home, subtle impressions are more important than you would think. That’s because, as important as your realtor’s background and experience are, you’ll have a lot easier time if you have personality styles that work well together.

With that being said, however, there are a few things you should definitely ask any realtor you meet with before you start working with them. Here are a few questions you want to be sure to get answers to:

How long have you worked in this area? There’s nothing wrong with having a realtor who’s new to the business, or new to the area, but by asking this question you can get a sense of how well they know the neighborhoods you’re looking at. If you already know all about the area you want to move into, then local knowledge probably isn’t that important. But if you need someone to point the way, look for a little experience.

What kind of clients do you normally work with? This is another question that may or may not be important to you based on your particular situation, but know that some realtors specialize in a certain type of client – growing families, first-time homebuyers, or recent retirees, for example. Finding out what kind of clients your realtor normally takes is a good way to get a sense of whether they’re likely to understand what you’re looking for.

What do you enjoy about being a realtor? This is actually a little bit of a trick question. That’s because it doesn’t really matter what your prospective realtor says, so long as they have some kind of answer. There are people who get into the real estate industry because they think it’s an easy way to make some money, or can’t think of anything else to do. That’s not the kind of person you want helping you choose your next home.

Want a Big Canoe GA Realtor who can answer all your questions? Try Harry Norman, Realtors we’ve helped thousands of families in and around North Georgia to find the perfect home for their needs.

Finding the Right North Georgia Realtor as a First Time Home Buyer

March 24, 2011 By admin

When you are buying a house for the first time, everything about the process can seem daunting. Besides deciding how big of a home you need, where to look for financing, and even deciding whether it’s the right time to buy at all, you have to find a North Georgia Realtor you can count on. To a lot of new buyers, that can seem like a difficult decision… and one that carries a lot of weight.

Since finding the right realtor can mean the difference between a home search that’s fun and exciting and one that feels like a never-ending chore, I’d like to offer a quick piece of advice to first-time homebuyers everywhere: look for someone with patience and experience.

There is a tendency, especially amongst young people who might have a friend or relative who has recently gotten into the business, to go with a newer realtor. There’s nothing wrong with that – I was new once too, and we all have to start somewhere – but it might not be the best idea if you haven’t been through the process before. That’s because being a realtor is more than simply showing properties and collecting a commission check; there’s lots of guidance, handholding, and questioning that are also part of the job. And when it comes to first-time homebuyers, they’re the skills that are most important.

The same goes for choosing a realtor who is patient. You might be in a hurry to choose your next house and move in, but having someone who is a little bit calming, not to mention willing to take the time to answer your questions, can be a big help.

As a first-time home buyer, you’re about to make a lot of big decisions that you will either come to love or regret years down the road. Make sure you choose a realtor who is patient experienced, and you’ll have a good head start on all the others.

Call or stop by Harry Norman, Realtors North Georgia Office today. It won’t take long to figure out why we’re the oldest and largest agency dealing in Big Canoe, Jasper, Dawsonville, Dahlonega and Ellijay GA real estate.
