The Referred & Preferred Agent

All real estate licensees are not the same.

Only real estate licensees who are members of the National Association of REALTORS are properly called REALTORS. They proudly display the REALTOR "®" logo on the business card or other marketing and sales literature. REALTORS are committed to treat all parties to a transaction honestly. REALTORS subscribe to a strict code of ethics and are expected to maintain a higher level of knowledge of the process of buying and selling real estate. An independent survey reports that 84% of home buyers would use the same REALTOR again.

Real estate transactions involve one of the biggest financial investments most people experience in their lifetime. Transactions today usually exceed $100,000. If you had a $100,000 income tax problem, would you attempt to deal with it without the help of a CPA? If you had a $100,000 legal question, would you deal with it without the help of an attorney? Considering the small upside cost and the large downside risk, it would be foolish to consider a deal in real estate without the professional assistance of a REALTOR.

What a Louisiana REALTOR Can Do for You

The Louisiana REALTOR you work with could be one of your most valuable resources. Unlike many real estate agents who are simply licensed by their state to do business, REALTORS have taken additional steps to become members of their local board of REALTORS and have agreed to act under and adhere to a strict Code of Ethics. Plus...

A Louisiana REALTOR can guide you through the process of selling your home from beginning to end.
A Louisiana REALTOR can help you determine how much home you can afford. Often a REALTOR can suggest ways to accrue the down payment and explain alternative financing methods.
A Louisiana REALTOR , in addition to knowing the local money market, also can tell you what personal and financial data to bring with you when you apply for a loan.
A Louisiana REALTOR is already familiar with current real estate values, taxes, utility costs, municipal services and facilities, and may be aware of local zoning changes that could affect your decision to buy.
A Louisiana REALTOR can usually research your housing needs in advance through a Multiple Listing Service--even if you are relocating from another city.
A Louisiana REALTOR can show you only those homes best suited to your needs--size, style, features, location, accessibility to schools, transportation, shopping and other personal preferences.
A Louisiana REALTOR often can suggest simple, imaginative changes that make a home more suitable for you and improve its utility and value.
A Louisiana REALTOR is sensitive to the importance you place on this major commitment you are about to make. Look for a real estate professional to facilitate negotiation of a win-win agreement that will satisfy both you and the seller.
A Louisiana REALTOR can share information about your home through the Multiple Listing Service and on the Internet.
A Louisiana REALTOR aids in complying with the disclosures required by law.

Additionally, Louisiana REALTORS work together to make sure homeowners and other private-property holders are treated fairly by lawmakers and regulatory agencies. The Louisiana Realtors Association is one of the state's most powerful lobbying groups, continuously working to identify and address issues that have a potential impact on the real estate industry and private property rights. Through this involvement, your Louisiana REALTOR continues to look out for your interests as a property owner, after the real estate transaction and beyond.
