How much communication should I be getting from my agent?

Communication is the key to this career for us. We communicate information about your house to the market, we communicate with buyers and sellers and every other person involved in the process. The better the lines of communication, the better the experience and understanding for all parties involved.
As a standard, you need to be receiving at least 3 forms of communication a week from your agent.
One after the home open so can know how many buyers you have had through your home, one during the week with feedback from those buyers and another to confirm the following home open. Written reports will assist you in your understanding of what is happening with response to your property and what you can do to assist in the sale.
Something this may highlight is that your home may be priced too high or there is something you can fix to enhance the saleability.
My written reports normally include a summary of the market, home open feedback and any recommendations I can make to assist in the process.
When you have all the information at hand when an offer comes in, you will be able to make an educated decision on how to respond. This is crucial in responding correctly and not missing out on a sale by counter offering too high or not accepting a good offer when it comes in.
