Choosing the Right Real Estate Agent Costs the Same—But Makes All the Difference
By Lana Soileau
Whether you’re buying or selling, the agent you choose matters more than you think. Here’s the truth: a good agent and a bad agent typically cost the same—but the difference in results can be massive.
A skilled agent protects your money, negotiates in your favor, and helps you avoid costly mistakes. The wrong agent can leave you overpaying, underselling, or stressed out with preventable problems.
What should you expect from the right agent?
✅ Clear, honest communication
✅ Expert-level negotiation skills
✅ Insight into legal risks (I bring 38 years of legal experience)
✅ Strong local reputation and agent-to-agent relationships
✅ Client-focused service that treats your goals as the top priority
Too many people hire someone they “know” without checking their experience or track record. Real estate is too important to leave to chance.
If you’re paying the same commission, make sure you’re getting real value. You deserve an agent who goes above and beyond—not one who just goes through the motions.
If you’re thinking of making a move, I’d love to help you do it right.
