Hi Michael, I would speak with friends, family and co-workers for referrals. You can also check out agents on Zillow to see their past performance and reviews. I would look for an agent that specializes in your area, with sales in your neighborhood. Next, set up interviews. Not everyone is a good fit, trust your gut and look for an agent you think will do a good job and you will get along with. A good test is to ask them if they can explain their Fiduciary duties to you as a client (you would be surprised how many can't, Loyal, Obedient, Disclosure, Confidentiality, Accounting, Reasonable care and Diligence). Good luck! Spirit
