This week on the Messy in The Middle podcast, Jefi and Ed share how to find a real estate agent to refer to someone who is looking to buy or sell in an area outside of your expertise. They emphasize the importance of reaching out to your trusted realtor, who will have a network of reliable agents across the country. By asking your trusted realtor for recommendations and providing them with specific details about the client's needs, they can do the research and vet potential agents to ensure a quality experience for the client.

QUOTES

• "Do you want your friend to end up with somebody like that? If you can think about it from a way that you're actually giving a gift to them by helping them find somebody that's the best of the best, that's a really great way to look at it instead of having it as a job." -Jefi Moultrie [05:41]

• "The key point here is that a trusted agent is going to be more than happy to do the research, and they're probably going to ask you very high-level questions.” -Ed Billings [06:57]
