Virginia Beach Real Estate
So you've enjoyed a wonderful week at the beach. You're thinking: why not buy a beach house? Maybe you even want to go visit some homes...
Here are some tips for you to consider when selecting a realtor:
- First, a disclaimer: nothing on this page represents any kind of legal or professional advice.
- Do use a realtor. She will have access to the entire MLS (Multiple Listing Service)
for the entire Virginia Beach area. The seller pays the commission anyways.
- Make sure you get along with your realtor. Interview at least 2 or 3 realtors.
- Pick a tech savvy realtor. If you're reading this page, you are probably at one with the Internet. You'll need to communicate often with your realtor and email is a convenient and efficient mean of communication.
- If your purchase is primarily for investment purposes, you might want to think about a realtor that actually owns an investment property in the virginia beach.
- Do visit the house you are buying. Yes, this sounds obvious, but you'd be surprised how many people don't do this. Better yet, try to stay in it overnight.
- Do ask how far a potential home is to the nearest PUBLIC beach access.
