Where are all the 'Good' Agents and Brokers?

If there is one constant request we get, it is this: 'Where do I find a 'good' Agent / Broker?'

Here is the good and the bad news.

First, the bad news:
There really isn't one place to find a 'good' Agent or Broker - there are many many resources out there, all of which can be very helpful in your search. Many of the directories you'll find are 'open' directories, which simply means that anyone can list themselves in them. At first glance, an open directory concept can seem not-so-good, after all, if anyone can list in the directory, won't the service levels be low - or worse yet, a 'crap-shoot' every time you search?

Actually, the opposite is the case. An open directory attracts the professionals. Let's face it, you don't want to work with any non-professional service providers. That's great - because the slackers out there won't usually take the time to put themselves out in front of active consumers anyway - and that's a good thing for you!

Now - the Great news:
We feature a similar 'open directory' approach here at MyREALTY.com - here's why: Buyers and Sellers are using Search Engines (such as Google, Yahoo, etc.) as directories. The trouble is, Search Engines are NOT directories! We'll get into this further in subsequent issues, but just because you can find something there doesn't make it a directory.

Our 'Find an Agent/Broker' list features TOP Agents and Brokers from local markets all over North America - and we are adding hundreds more every day.

These are professional and competent Agents and Brokers that WANT your business, and are willing to earn it with service and value.

Best of all - it's absolutely FREE for them to be added to the list - so you know you aren't just seeing the Agents / Brokers with the 'biggest budget', but rather those dedicated to pursuing your business and trust - and willing to market to find you.

Enjoy your search, and we hope you find your perfect match!

I like the approach here, and I was able to find my favorite agent in the search (I am in Phoenix) here. I did notice that not as many realtors showed up here, and I think that is a good thing.

I don't like calling numbers or clicking links that are no longer valid.
