Purchasing a house will probably be the most significant investment you’ll ever make. As an inexperienced home-buyer, navigating the real estate market and the mortgage process can be overwhelming. Moreover, even a minor mistake on your real estate or mortgage application could complicate the process further. To ensure that you get approved in the first attempt, it’s best to seek assistance from a mortgage broker and real estate agent.

A mortgage broker and realtor will ease you through the process by offering assistance at every other step, right from the pre-approval of your mortgage to the closing of your deal. 

With so many mortgage and real estate specialists available, it can be challenging to select one and be assured of getting the most profitable deal. To help simplify the selection process, here’s a list of the top five things to look for when hiring a mortgage broker and real estate agent. 

1. Product knowledge
A qualified mortgage broker and real estate agent will have a vast knowledge of the products offered in the mortgage and real estate industries. They’ll be able to guide you in finding the best deal that suits your mortgage and real estate needs.

2. Experience
Before hiring a mortgage broker and realtor, look at their experience and their track record. A seasoned agent will know how to stay on top of the real estate and mortgage markets and be able to capitalize on every opportunity to get you the most lucrative deal. 

3. Years of service
A mortgage broker and realtor who has worked in the industry for years will have built and maintained a vast professional network. An agent who works with several major banks and private lenders will be able to give you access to numerous options so that you can find the most suitable deal.  

4. Market knowledge 
The dynamics of the mortgage and real estate markets are ever-changing. To keep up with the market and get the best deals, enlist the services of a professional who knows the ins and outs of the markets.

5. Communication
As the home-buying process is time-consuming and ambiguous, it’s advisable to work with a mortgage agent and realtor who communicates effectively and updates you at every step. They should also be approachable and make you feel comfortable to be around.
