Here are some essential qualities of the best real estate agents. Whether you are searching for the best real estate agent in Pakistan, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, or the USA, these key qualities remain the same.
If an agent tells you that a house or plot is available at a very good price and you should buy it quickly, otherwise someone else will take it and the token money (bayana) is comingβthen such a person is mostly not suitable for you.
Also, if a property agent excessively praises every property they show you, they are usually not reliable either, because you wonβt be able to have a proper, honest discussion with them.
There should be no contradictions in his statements.
Try to discuss one property in detail with them. Ask different questions about its assessment or about the rates in that area. If there are many contradictions in their answers, then there is a high chance that they are not the right agent for you, especially in Pakistan.
He should not hesitate to arrange a meeting between both parties.
A property agent is actually just a middleman between both parties. The real parties are the seller and the buyer. So, arranging a meeting between them is important. However, if the agent does not want to arrange a meeting between both parties, then that is not appropriate. If both parties themselves do not want to meet, that is their choice, but the agent should try to make it happen.
Clearly states his commission.
Also, clearly state your charges. A property agent earns commission in return for their services; they are not the seller. So, if they do not clearly mention their commission, it means they are not suitable.
