I'm Moving To Another City, Do I Need To Find A Realtor In That ...

questions

Q: Can a Realtor in one city find a home for you in another city or do you have to find a Realtor in the city you wish to move to?
?TJ, Austin, TX

A: Realtors are licensed in the State where they live. You want to work with a Realtor that is very familiar with the area. In Phoenix we have quite a few cities that are clustered together and we work the entire valley which includes all these cities. But I would not take a client up to Flagstaff as it is not a city that I am familiar with and I would not know areas that could have problems say with bad expansive soils that an agent that lives there would know.

A: City to city doesn?t matter as far as licensing goes. But, I would definitely make sure that whatever agent you use is familiar with where you are looking.

A:I would ask your Realtor what are their areas of service. In the Philadelphia area most Realtors do work in the surrounding counties and town.

A: If you know a REALTOR in one city, that person can refer you to a REALTOR in another city. For that, the referring REALTOR will usually receive a referral fee. That?s the most typical scenario.

In theory, if the cities are in the same state, a REALTOR can work both. However, this rarely happens. We subscribe to the listing service (MLS) for a particular metropolitan area ? so to help a client in a different city, we?d have to purchase an MLS subscription in that city. (MLS fees are expensive.)

If the cities are in different states, then a REALTOR can?t work the other, unless she holds licenses in both states.

I hope this helps!

A: As long as the Realtor is licensed in the state you are looking he/she can sell anywhere in that state. However, that is not always in your best interests. It is usually best to find a Realtor who specializes in the area you wish to live.

A: Typically Real Estate agents are licensed specific to State not City. Check with the Texas Association of Realtors.

1115 San Jacinto Blvd., Suite 200
Austin, Texas 78701-1906
Phone: 512/480-8200, 800/873-9155
Fax: 512/370-2390

My recommendation would be to stick with someone that is familiar with the area you are moving to, unless you know the area yourself.

Good Luck.

A: The real question is why would you want to use a real estate agent from out of the area. You really should use a Realtor? who has local knowledge of the area in which you desire to relocate. The easiest way to find a local expert is to check with a Realtor? in your current location and ask them for a referral. Or, if you would like to contact me I would be happy to point you in the direction of a good Realtor?!

A: The way it works in Ohio is if you are a licensed Realtor in Ohio then you can work in any city. I?m thinking that is the way it is in TX due to fact when I practiced in OK, I could go all over the State.

If there is a great distance between the two cities then I would refer you to an agent who knows the area and will take excellent care of you wants and needs.

Jist ask an agent if they comfortable with showing houses in the city you wish to move to, then my all means go for it. If they aren?t, then ask them for a personal referral to an agent they have worked with before or who they know .

A: The Realtor has to be licensed in the state in which the property is located.
Debra Adams is a Realtor? with Keller Williams AV in Palmdale, CA.

A: Normally a REALTOR in one city would refer you to an expert in the city you are moving to, rather than try to represent you in an area that they aren?t familiar with. Even in the Metroplex, we have issues in the Fort Worth/Arlington area such as mineral rights that the Dallas agents might not be as well versed on since Dallas doesn?t fall into the Barnett Shale region. It really depends how far away the areas are and how comfortable you are with the representation you are being given.
Amy Cearnal is a Realtor? with Keller Williams Realty in Arlington, TX. A: Of course a Realtor may be able to find a home in another city. The question is your agent familiar with the city you are looking for?. As everyone said location is the difference when you buy a property, if your Realtor has the experience and knowledge in certain area? just go for it.
Salvador Lopez-Cabello is a Realtor? with Casa Latino Bay Area Realty in Temecula, CA.

A: A Realtor in one city can find you a Realtor in another city and ask the other Realtor for a referral fee ? whichs does not come out of your pocket.

In fact ? ?I? can find you a Realtor in any city ? but I don?t recommend any Realtor who says they can find you a home in another city ? because they can?t possibly know the market or have access to the local multifply listing service.

Sincerely
