This episode gives you 20 must-ask questions to confidently hire the right realtor and avoid costly mistakes.

In this episode, David reveals why so many buyers end up with inexperienced or undertrained realtors — and how to avoid becoming one of them. You’ll learn the exact 20 questions to ask in your interviews to ensure you’re hiring a true first-time buyer specialist, not someone just “trying out the job.” This is the tactical guide every first-time buyer needs before taking a single step toward home shopping.
