HIRE LOCAL: The advantages of working with a local agent

Why is working with a local real estate agent best for you as a client?

"The problem with real estate is that it’s local. You have to understand the local market." —Robert Kiyosaki

There are so many reasons why you should hire an agent from the best local real estate agency to help you with your next move.


Here's why having a local expert by your side can make all the difference:


  1. Local Market Insights: A local agent knows the ins and outs of the real estate market in your area or in the area that you're looking to buy in. We will be able to give invaluable insights into current market trends, property values, and neighborhood stats. Having a local expert by your side will be a great asset in helping you make informed decisions.
  2. Networking: As locals that live and work in Boundary County, we have a large network of other local professionals that we work with everyday that will be available for any services you'll need! We will connect you with the most knowledgeable home inspectors, title companies, lenders, tradesmen, or any other businesses that you'll need to work with.
  3. Neighborhood Experts: We live, work, and play in Boundary and Bonner County. We do our shopping here, send our kids to the local schools, and are very active in the community. We'll know more about the local area and everything it has to offer than someone from out of the area. If you're looking to move to our area we'll be happy to show you around and find you your perfect corner of our area!
  4. Availability: Its important to hire an agent that is always available to handle showings, offers, and answer any questions you have. Someone that lives over an hour away might not be able to prioritize a long drive to help with an issue. We are always here to aid you.
  5. Local Regulations: Real estate regulations are different in every area and county. We are very familiar with the local rules, zoning laws, and permit requirements. This expertise makes sure that your transaction follows to all the necessary legalities.
  6. Problem Solving: If there are any issues that come up during a transaction we are equipped with the solutions and resources to get things back on track. We'll direct you to the right contacts and professionals to get you the answers you need. Our familiarity with the local market allows us to give you a heads up with any potential problems.
  7. Closing & Beyond Guidance: Even after we close, our local office remains a valuable resource. Whether you need recommendations for home maintenance services or want to stay updated on market trends, we are here to help.


Although you can look up information about Boundary County or the real estate process online or watch YouTube, the value of having a local real estate agent is irreplaceable. Our firsthand experiences and knowledge is why our clients are satisfied and happy after every deal. We recommend working with a local agent no matter where you are at. They will be able to provide you the best service and best quality.


Remember, when it comes to real estate, going local is the way to go!
