What are red flags when choosing a real estate agent in Winnipeg?

Watch out for agents who suggest a listing price well above what comparable sales support just to win your business. Overpricing costs sellers time and often results in a lower final sale price after price reductions. Also be cautious of agents who push you to sign a representation agreement at the first meeting without time to compare options.

Other warning signs include poor communication between appointments, very few verifiable reviews, and a lack of recent sales in your specific area. Part-time agents often lack the current market knowledge needed to serve you well. In Manitoba, all agents must be licensed through the Manitoba Securities Commission's real estate division.
