When it comes to buying or selling a home, choosing the right estate agent can make all the difference. After all, your home isn’t just a property — it’s your sanctuary, your memories, your story. That’s why it’s so important to work with someone who not only knows the industry inside out but genuinely loves what they do.
As someone who has been in estate agency for 14 years, I can honestly say that loving what I do has made all the difference for my clients. But how can you spot an agent who truly cares? Here are some key things to look for:
1. Passion for the Process
An agent who loves their job will have a passion for every part of the process, from listing a property and creating a standout marketing campaign to helping you navigate the complexities of the sale. Look for someone who takes the time to:
- Create tailored, beautiful marketing that showcases your home’s unique features.
- Be present, supportive, and attentive throughout the journey.
- Handle every step with enthusiasm and care — even the little things, like delivering keys on moving day.
When your agent is invested in your success, it shows in their attention to detail and their commitment to going the extra mile.
2. A Personal Touch
Estate agency isn’t just about properties; it’s about people. An agent who loves what they do will take the time to understand your goals, your concerns, and your unique situation. They’ll know how to offer guidance that’s right for you, whether it’s:
- Suggesting ways to prepare your home for viewings.
- Communicating honestly about pricing and market trends.
- Offering support during what can be an emotional journey.
When someone truly loves their work, they’ll treat your home sale as more than just a transaction — they’ll treat it as a partnership.
3. A Track Record of Happy Clients
Someone who loves what they do will naturally have a history of happy clients. Look for testimonials, reviews, or recommendations that mention:
- Their positive attitude and approachability.
- Their ability to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
- The extra steps they took to ensure success.
An agent who truly cares will leave a lasting impression, not just because they sold your home but because they made the experience a positive one.
4. The Little Things Matter
It’s often the small gestures that reveal how much someone cares about their work. For me, it’s about having the time to give that little extra attention when needed — whether it’s helping a client prepare for a viewing, arranging a smooth move-in day, or simply delivering keys with a smile. These moments may seem small, but they mean everything to me and to the people I work with.
5. A Genuine Love for Helping People
At the heart of it, estate agency is about helping people find their perfect home or move on to their next chapter. An agent who loves their job will thrive on the joy of seeing their clients happy and excited for the future. They’ll celebrate your wins as much as you do and be there to support you through the challenges.
Why It Matters
When you choose an estate agent who loves what they do, you’re not just choosing a professional — you’re choosing a partner who will guide you through one of the most important journeys in your life. Their enthusiasm, care, and dedication can make all the difference, turning what could be a stressful process into an exciting and rewarding experience.
