Why You Need a Competent REALTOR® When the Market Shifts

July 18, 2022•1 min read

It’s as important as ever to work with a competent REALTOR®, especially when the market is going through a shift.

Why shifting markets are risky

When the market changes quickly, strategies that worked a few months ago can stop working overnight:

  • Pricing strategies that sparked bidding wars might leave a home sitting.
  • Offer strategies like waiving conditions might put buyers at serious risk.
  • Buyer and seller expectations might be based on a market that no longer exists.

The danger of an inexperienced agent

If your REALTOR® is inexperienced, or unable to adjust on the fly, you’re setting yourself up for disaster. You might:

  • Overprice your home and miss the window to sell
  • Overpay for a home as prices soften
  • Go firm without protection when conditions should be included
  • Miss opportunities that a more experienced agent would spot

What a competent REALTOR® does

  • Watches the market daily and adjusts strategy as conditions change
  • Gives honest advice based on current data, not past headlines
  • Protects you with the right conditions and contract terms
  • Has seen market shifts before and knows how to navigate them
