Real estate agents are independent business people who sell or lease real estate to others for a fee. Buying, as well as selling any type of real estate (home, apartment, office space) is not only a great and very important event in the life of each individual, it is also a complex transaction.

This is why people who sell or buy non-real estate most often seek the help of real estate agents. These professionals are well versed in the real estate market in their area of ​​expertise. They know which residential area will best meet the wishes and financial capabilities of their clients.

They are well aware of tax and other laws relevant to the purchase or sale of real estate. Agents act as negotiators between buyer and seller. When making deals, agents often inform their clients about the loans they can finance their purchase. They organize meetings of the buyer and seller at which they agree on all the details of the transaction and at which the buyers of the real estate become its new owners (in the case of purchase), or start rhtmolagat real estate (in the case of renting).

From time to time, agents assume responsibility for the transaction-related administration, but most of the work is done by lawyers. Agents are also most concerned with advertising the property they are selling or renting. Before showing a particular property to potential buyers, the agent meets with them to gather comprehensive information about what type of property clients want, as well as their financial options. Afterwards, the agent shows them a few properties that they believe could meet their requirements. Because buying a property is a very important event in everyone's life, agents meet with their client several times to determine exactly what the client wants.

In answering the client's questions, the agent emphasizes all the facts that may be relevant in choosing a property: e.g. warns young families looking for a home near a good school or large green area (suitable for children), when looking for a business space, emphasizes the proximity of parking, etc. If price negotiations are necessary, the agent must follow his client's instructions and try to reach the best price.

Since both the seller and the buyer have signed the contract, it is the agent's job to make sure that all the terms of the contract are fulfilled by a predetermined date. If the seller e.g. obliged to introduce central heating to the dwelling, the agent must make sure that the seller fulfills this obligation. The seller must also make all possible repairs or alterations by the agreed date, otherwise the contract will be canceled. Although a number of details related to the sale or rental of real estate are taken care of by lawyers, real estate agents need to make sure everything is done correctly and on time.

The tasks of a real estate agent are not limited solely to the real estate sale itself. They spend much of their time finding properties for sale. They spend a lot of time making phone calls and checking information that leads them to potential sellers. After that, they often visit them in person.

After listing certain properties in "sales catalogs," agents compare them to other properties on the market (or those recently sold) to determine their market value. Most agents sell homes and flats, while few specialize in the sale of other types of real estate (eg office space). Each area of ​​work requires specific knowledge. When selling residential properties, agents need to know the locations of schools, public transportation, shops, etc. Agents are increasingly using personal computers in their business, enabling them to quickly and accurately find the information they need.
