How to Tell If Your Estate Agent Is Holding You Back

Not all agents are the same. If your property isn’t moving, your agent might be the issue. Here’s how to tell:

1. Poor Communication

• If you’re always chasing your agent for updates, that’s a red flag.

• A good agent provides regular feedback, even if there’s no new interest.

2. Low-Quality Viewings

• Are viewings handled by an experienced agent or left to junior staff?

• An agent should guide buyers, handle objections, and interpret interest levels.

3. Limited Marketing Reach

• A ‘wait-and-see’ approach is ineffective.

• Your home should be marketed beyond the portals, including social media, email campaigns, and digital ads.

4. Passive Selling vs. Proactive Selling

• A strong agent adjusts the strategy based on market feedback.

• If your agent isn’t suggesting refinements, they may not be invested in your sale.

Final Thoughts

If you’re experiencing these frustrations, it may be time to consider switching to an agent who actively works to secure your sale.
