Search for a your home

The first thing to do before even calling a realtor is make a list of everything you are looking for in a new home from the area you want to live, the type of property, if there is public transportation within walking distance, to the price. Establish a set of minimum requirements and a 'wish list" for your new home.

Find a Real Estate Agent

One way to find candidates to interview is to talk to professionals from real estate related professions and ask their opinion. If you know someone who is employed as an escrow officer, title representative, homeowners insurance salesman, or loan officer, they will be able to recommend Realtors from the area they work in.
