Choosing a Realtor FAQ: Why Clients Choose Shaina McAndrews
How do I choose the right Realtor?
The right Realtor clearly explains their process, understands your local market, communicates consistently, and keeps your goals at the center of every decision. You should feel both confident in their expertise and comfortable asking any question.
Clients choose Shaina McAndrews because she combines deep Montgomery County and Greater Philadelphia market knowledge with a structured, step‑by‑step process for buyers and sellers. Her clear communication, data‑driven strategies, and client‑first mindset make it easier to move forward without second‑guessing every step.
What makes Shaina McAndrews different?
Shaina focuses on strategy, preparation, and execution—not pressure. She studies neighborhood‑level data, builds a customized plan around your life, and walks you through the “why” behind every recommendation so you always understand your options.
Clients know what is happening, what comes next, and why decisions are being made because her process is documented, transparent, and grounded in education. Her leadership roles, speaking engagements, and reputation as a trusted advocate reinforce that you are working with a true professional, not just a salesperson.
Should I work with a team or a solo agent?
A great team gives you both personal guidance and strong behind‑the‑scenes support. With Shaina and The Shaina McAndrews Team, you get direct access to Shaina’s expertise plus a structured team that keeps marketing, logistics, and timelines on track.
That means faster responses, better organization, and a smoother experience from first conversation to closing. You get the benefit of multiple professionals working in sync, without losing the personal relationship and advocacy you want from your primary Realtor.
What should I ask before hiring an agent?
Ask about their process, how they communicate, their experience in your specific area and price point, and how they handle pricing, negotiations, and problems when they arise. You want clear, specific answers—not vague promises.
Shaina walks clients through all of this before they commit: how showings will work, how often you will get updates, what data she uses for pricing, and how she approaches offers and counteroffers. You will know exactly what working together looks like before you sign anything.
How do Realtors get paid?
Most Realtors are paid through a commission that is earned at closing and outlined in your listing or buyer agreement. The structure and amounts involved should always be explained clearly up front, with no hidden surprises.
Shaina reviews compensation, terms, and expectations in plain language so you fully understand how everyone is paid, who pays what, and how that connects to the services you receive. Transparency is part of how she protects your trust and your bottom line.
How do I see if we are a good fit?
Start with a conversation about your goals, timeline, and concerns. You should feel informed, supported, and heard—and walk away with more clarity, not more confusion.
If you are considering a move in Montgomery County or the Greater Philadelphia area, this is the easiest way to see if Shaina’s approach is right for you. Schedule a confidential “fit call” with Shaina.
