If you’re considering buying a new home or selling your current one, one of your most important tasks is to find the right professionals to help you. Possibly professionals such as a real estate lawyer, contractor, cleaner, carpet installer, plumber, electrician and a moving company.
So how do you find the right people to make your move go smoothly?
First, start with professionals you already know in some way.
You may already know someone – a contractor, for example – that you like and trust. If so, then it makes sense to talk to him or her about your plans.
Also, consider those professionals who have taken the time to reach out to you by way of a visit, phone call or helpful blog posts (like this one!). They’re demonstrating their interest in getting to know you and being of service. It makes sense to give them a call.
Another tactic is to ask for recommendations. Ask friends, neighbours, and even other professionals if they can recommend a good company to help you. Chances are, they can.
You’ll find that most professionals, such as Realtors like myself, have a network of trusted people and companies they recommend. A good Realtor can probably give you all kinds of real estate related referrals. I have a list of people I rely on so if you need a recommendation, please call today.
