How to pick the right agent
The best agent is the one who communicates clearly, understands your pocket, and executes a plan that matches your timeline and risk tolerance.
Questions to ask
- 🧠What’s your pricing plan?Ask for strategy, not a number.
- 📣How will you market this home?Ask how they’ll create demand and reduce buyer objections.
- 🗺️What’s unique about this pocket?Street-level nuance matters for targeting buyers.
- 🧾How do you communicate?Ask about updates, cadence, and expectations.
Red flags
Overpromising
Guarantees and hype are a warning sign.
Vague pricing
If they can’t explain strategy, be careful.
Poor communication
Slow or unclear communication early gets worse later.
Current featured partner context
If you want a concrete example of what “documented local support” looks like, start with Marlene Mussehl on the agents page.
Marlene is the current featured partner on StGeorgeListings.com. She has been licensed since 2007, works under Element Real Estate, and has a published Locally Proofed report documenting her Utah license, CRS designation, and broader credential stack. That does not replace your due diligence, but it is stronger than a generic “talk to an agent” handoff.
