🏡 Top 5 Questions to Ask Your Real Estate Agent Before Listing

Selling your home is a big decision — and choosing the right real estate agent can make all the difference! Whether you’re in Duluth or anywhere across the Iron Range, partnering with an experienced local agent helps you price smart, market effectively, and close confidently. But before you sign that listing agreement, here are the top five questions every seller should ask 👇

1️⃣ How Will You Price My Home?

A skilled agent doesn’t just guess your home’s value — they use a detailed market analysis, local expertise, and knowledge of current trends to set the perfect price. Ask how they’ll determine that number and how it compares to similar properties nearby.

2️⃣ What’s Your Marketing Strategy?

In today’s market, selling a home takes more than just a “For Sale” sign. A strong agent will use professional photography, social media marketing, targeted ads, and online exposure to reach qualified buyers. Make sure your agent knows how to showcase your home’s unique features — whether it’s a Lake Superior view or a quiet Iron Range neighborhood.

3️⃣ How Will You Communicate With Me?

Selling a home can be stressful if you’re left in the dark. Ask how often your agent will check in, what tools they use to keep you updated, and how quickly you can expect responses.

4️⃣ What Sets You Apart From Other Agents?

This is your chance to find out what makes them different. Maybe it’s their local market knowledge, negotiation skills, or proven track record of top sales in Duluth and the Iron Range. You deserve an agent who goes above and beyond.

5️⃣ What Should I Do to Get My Home Ready to Sell?

A great agent will help you make smart improvements that increase value and attract buyers — without wasting time or money.
