What You Need From a Realtor in Montgomery

Montgomery's not complicated, but it requires someone who knows the difference between neighborhoods that appreciate and ones that don't.

Neighborhood expertise separates good from mediocre.

Your real estate agent needs to know:

  • Which areas near Maxwell Air Force Base and downtown hold value

  • Where new development is headed and what that means for your property

  • Which pockets flood and which ones just look sketchy on Google Maps but are fine

  • The difference between buying at $180K in an area that'll be worth $200K in three years versus one that stays flat.

Pricing matters more now than six months ago

Homes sat for 48 days last year. Now they're taking 67 days.

That's not a collapsing market, but it's also not one where sellers can overprice and still get offers.

If you're selling:

  • Your realtor better be pulling actual comps from recent sales in your zip code

  • They should tell you the truth about condition issues that'll kill your price

  • They need to know how to stage or advise on what fixes are worth it versus which ones won't move the needle

If you're buying:

  • Don't accept list price just because inventory feels tight

  • Good realtors know when to negotiate and how much room sellers actually have

  • They'll spot problems in disclosure that you won't catch until inspection costs you money

Buyers need to factor insurance into affordability as well. Along those same lines, sellers need to price knowing that buyers are getting smarter about long-term costs.
