Working with Two Realtors: Is It a Smart Move?
If you’re getting ready to sell your home and buy a new one, it’s obvious there are many moving pieces. Most people choose to have a realtor to help them navigate this transition.
But what happens when the transactions are happening simultaneously? Do you need one or two realtors?
Check out our video below or keep reading for the answers to these common questions when it comes time to sell and buy a new home.
You can absolutely work with two realtors at the same time as long as they are either in two different states or two different regions or markets. However, you can’t have two different agents who are working in the same market. An agreement will have to be signed that you are only working with one agent. But as long as you are making a real estate transaction in two different markets, you can absolutely work with two agents.
For example, if you’re selling your home in one state and buying in another, having local experts in each market ensures smoother communication and faster transactions. Whether you’re in Colorado, Denver, or even Arkansas, sellers who need to sell their house fast in Little Rock for example, often work with a local realtor who understands the urgency and can align the sale with their moving timeline. This makes it easier to coordinate with a buying agent in the new city, especially when timing is critical.
