There is nothing more frustrating than a realtor who does not listen to your preferences. If you tell the realtor your maximum price you would pay for a residence will be $200,000, and the realtor continuously shows you houses outside of your price range, odds are very good that the realtor isn't anxious about your needs or what you could manage, but is actually more curious in just how much commission these people may earn off of your business with them. A realtor should remember just how many kids you have, and just how many bedrooms you will need, for illustration; and if you'll need a great office, show you houses with ideal office space; if you have a dog, then the realtor should remember to locate houses for you with a fenced in back lawn, for example. You should never have to continually remind your realtor what your preferences are; if you are constantly reiterating your preferences, then it could become indicative of the realtor possibly having too many clientele, or not really interested in what your needs really are.
