Torn Between Keeping or Firing Your Realtor? Here’s How to Decide!
Hiring the right real estate agent can make or break your buying or selling experience. But what happens when you start to wonder if your agent is really the right fit? If you’re frustrated or unsure, you’re not alone—and it might be time to take a closer look.
Here are some red flags that may signal it’s time for a change:
✅ They Aren’t Responsive
If you’re constantly waiting hours—or even days—for a response, that’s a problem. Real estate moves fast, and a delayed reply could cost you an offer, a showing, or a great opportunity.
✅ They’re Not Proactive
You shouldn’t be the one driving the entire process. A great agent anticipates needs, brings ideas to the table, and actively works to get your home sold or help you find the right one.
✅ You’re Not Getting Results
If your home is sitting without interest or you’ve been house hunting for months with no progress, it might be more than just the market. Lack of marketing strategy, poor communication with other agents, or weak negotiation skills could be dragging things down.
✅ You Feel Unheard or Pushed
A real estate agent is your advisor—not your boss. If you feel pressured into decisions or like your concerns are being brushed aside, it’s a sign they aren’t putting your goals first.
Before you officially pull the plug, try having an honest conversation. Sometimes, realigning expectations can reset the relationship. But if you’ve tried that and nothing’s changed, don’t settle.
👋 Your time, money, and peace of mind matter. If your agent isn’t delivering, it’s perfectly okay to move on.

Why Does RE/MAX Results Stand Out Among the Competition?
Simply put: Relationships. We pride ourselves not only in our professional service but more importantly in the personal touch we bring to our business. Has an agent/lawyer/contractor/vendor ever treated you like you were just another paycheck? The reason our clients come back time and again and refer all their friends and family to us is because they know we are part of the family.
Genuinely caring about the people we serve enables us to do things other agencies can’t. Rest assured, we will ALWAYS have your best interest at heart and work vigorously to get you the best deal possible on your home or business. The relationships we build with our clients enable us to work 100% by referral.
The reason we are able to give top notch service to our clients is because our clients refer us a constant stream of quality family and friends to assist in their real estate needs. While other agents are out making cold calls and chasing “potential” leads, we are freed up by our referral base to service our clients like no other broker can. We are never too busy for your referrals!
