How to Interview a Real Estate Agent in Canada

When learning how to interview a real estate agent in Canada, first-time buyers should focus on local neighborhood transaction records, commission rebate flexibility, negotiation methodologies, and availability.

Key Questions from our Checklist:

• Neighborhood Expertise: Ask for details of their recent sales in your specific micro-neighborhood. Broad city statistics do not protect your interests.
• Rebate Alignment: Ask if they are willing to put their commission rebate terms and representation length in writing from day one. Verbal promises are non-binding.
• Responsibility for Cooperating Differentials: Ask if you will be responsible for paying commission out of pocket if the seller's cooperating commission is lower than their minimum. Check for Bra fine-print clauses.
