With many miles of sugar white sand beaches and shimmering emerald green water, it’s natural for families to want to own a slice of paradise. There are hundreds of listings, dozens of websites, and a wide range of prices. Where to begin? We recommend starting with a trusted and experienced real estate agent. What makes the best Destin Real Estate Agent? Here are some things to look for in a Emerald Coast Realtor:

Narrow Destin Real Estate Options.

In today’s technology driven environment, information is at our finger tips, and often creates information overload. The best Destin sales agent can cut the search time in half, saving buyers many hours of sifting through Destin real estate listings that don’t meet their needs or expectations. By beginning with a series of questions that identify the buyers’ interests, geographic areas, lifestyle needs, price range, etc., the best real estate agent will narrow the list of choices as well as share new listings as they become available.

Uncover Important Facts About the Destin Real Estate Listing.

Third party websites such as Trulia and Zillow are there to help aggregate content in one location. Unfortunately, many times facts, details, photos and other relevant information are omitted. The best Emerald Coast real estate agents are able to clear the clutter and shed light on the facts about a given property. They know the important questions to ask and find the right answers.

Understanding of the Destin, South Walton and 30A Market.

There is no substitute for experience. Companies such as Newman-Dailey Resort Properties with a 30+ year history serving Destin, South Walton and 30A are able to advise clients based on personal experience of Destin’s growth, economic changes and adjustments in home values over the years.  This wealth of knowledge will provide accurate insights on current market valuation and investment performance.

Trust and Integrity.

The best real estate agents know the in’s and out’s as well as the important questions to ask. If purchasing a vacation investment property to place on a rental program, a quality real estate agent will walk potential owners through the process and provide an honest evaluation of what to expect. In addition, when purchasing a vacation rental, knowing the details about the property's association (beyond just the monthly dues) is imperative to understanding how the property will be managed. Some agents simply want to make a sale, but the best Destin real estate agents want to help their clients find an investment that will meet their needs now and into the future.

Long-Standing Relationships.

It’s as much what you know as who you know. Finding an established real estate agent with deep relationships in the market is key to expediting the closing and can greatly help with any other needs that arise. Relationships with banks, lenders, title companies, repair services, and city and county officials all greatly improve the efficiency and quality of a tranaction.

Extensive Knowledge of the Process.

Once a buyer or seller is locked in, it’s extremely important to have a real estate agent who understands the process. An experienced sales agent will know the steps to take to protect both buyer and seller, and provide guidance on what’s included in the ever growing sales contract, which is now at a lengthy nine pages.
