When choosing your personal real estate agent, do you favour charisma or credentials?
While personal magnetism is an asset, perhaps you should also check your agent's credentials for areas of expertise.
Credentials should reveal a wide range of real estate knowledge.

A credential is an attestation of qualification, competence, or authority issued to an individual by a third party with a relevant authority or assumed competence to do so.
