Whether you’re listing a charming Cape Cod in Glenside or a luxury home in Lower Gwynedd, here’s how to choose the best real estate agent to sell your Montgomery County home—and why our team might be the right fit.
1. Look for Local Expertise
An agent who knows Montgomery County understands:
Neighborhood-by-neighborhood price trends
What local buyers are looking for right now
How to position your home to compete in the market
Ask:
“What’s your experience selling homes in my town or school district?”

2. Ask About Their Marketing Strategy
Selling in 2025 requires more than a sign in the yard. The right agent will have a multi-platform marketing plan that includes:
Professional photography and videography
Social media advertising
Email marketing to active buyers
Digital exposure on Zillow, Realtor.com, and the MLS
Open house strategy and agent outreach
Ask:
“How will you market my home differently than other agents?”
🎥 We invest in visuals and storytelling that get buyers emotionally attached before they even step inside.
3. Review Communication & Support
You want an agent who:
Answers your questions quickly
Explains the process clearly
Keeps you informed during every stage
Has a team behind them to make the process seamless
Ask:
“Who will I be communicating with during the sale?”
“How often will I receive updates?”
📞 Book a 1-on-1 call to see how we communicate with our clients before, during, and after the sale.
4. Ask About Pricing Strategy—Not Just Price
You don’t want an agent who just tells you what you want to hear. You want someone who backs up their suggested price with real data and explains how pricing affects:
Buyer traffic
Days on market
Final sales price
Ask:
“What’s your list-to-sale price ratio compared to the market average?”
📈 We help you price for competition—not just comps.
5. Don’t Just Ask “What’s Your Commission?”
It’s not about the cheapest agent. It’s about the one who will put more money in your pocket through smarter prep, stronger negotiation, and better marketing.
Ask:
“How do you help sellers maximize their net proceeds?”
And remember: an experienced agent often pays for themselves by negotiating you a higher price and avoiding costly mistakes.
