Choosing A Good Real Estate Agent

I read a newspaper article today that mentioned a quality that I feel is the key to being a good real estate agent. The article stated that "there are very few agents that have the ability to make the consumer feel comfortable about the process and the ability to make them feel good."
I continue to realize that being a good real estate agent is not just about doing the paperwork correctly and closing the deal. It is really more about helping your client get through the process.
A good agent must be responsive, knowledgeable, and have great negotiating skills to solve problems and address issues that arise. Attitude plays a huge part. Managing the issues with clarity and calmness and guiding your client to a decision are paramount. Compassion and caring about all the people we deal with in these transactions is a very vital part of becoming and staying successful!
