Some of the easiest and most effective methods include networking on social media, asking family and friends for a referral, or simply searching online.
At 3 Options Realty, we pride ourselves on putting the client's needs first and providing continuous support and quality services throughout their real estate journey.

If you don't like the services rendered by your current real estate agent and you haven't signed an agent agreement, then you can find a different agent at any point. However, most property management companies ensure that an agreement is signed that legally bounds you to remain with them for a particular duration. Here are some things you need to do if you consider firing your real estate agent.
The first step is to go through the agent agreement again since you already did it for the first time going into the deal. Reviewing the document for the second time gives you clarity and an opportunity to find valid reasons to fire your current property management company. While this doesn't guarantee a loophole exists, a refresher doesn't hurt.

The dialogue aims to allow you to air your grievances and explain why your needs aren't being met as expected. An open discussion also gives the real estate agent a chance to improve and adopt a better approach when serving you or allowing you out of the agreement.
If the talks don't succeed and you fail to make any progress with your agent, consider consulting a broker. We recommend that you be as specific as possible while sharing your grievances and explaining what you want to happen. Some brokers can help you break out of the agreement, but you should talk to a lawyer if that isn't the case.
A broker might not have the expertise to help you out of an agreement, but a real estate lawyer can recommend the most suitable course of action based on your agreement. Contact us today at 3 Options Realty for more information and unmatched property management services at competitive market rates.
