Compare local experience, qualifications, working methods, the marketing plan and the fee. Meet more than one agent before signing an assignment.

The fee may be a percentage of the sale price, a fixed amount or a combination. Ask for a written offer showing VAT and other costs.

Yes. The seller then handles pricing, documentation, disclosure duties, marketing and the practical transaction process.

A witness is generally required for a paper transfer of real property. A witness is not required for a sale of housing-company shares.
