?John Chen's Performance Metrics
GENERAL METRICS
Top Cities
?These are the cities where John represents buyers and sellers most often, listed by percent of active and sold listings in each location.
Top Neighborhoods
?These are the neighborhoods where John represents both buyers and sellers most often, listed by percent of active listings and transactions closed in each location.
Listing Types
?These are the types of properties that John represents most often for both buyers and sellers, listed by percent of active listings and transactions closed for each property type (Single Family, Condo, Town House, Multi-family, land & lots, etc.)
Buyers Vs. Sellers Represented
?This is the ratio and number of closed transactions where John represented a buyer in the purchase of a home (‘Buyer’) vs. a seller in the sale of a home (‘Seller’).
Number of Closed Transactions
?This is the number of total transactions that John completed when representing buyers and sellers vs. his agent peer group (‘Peers’).
Number of Active Listings
?This is the number of properties that John is currently listing for sale vs. the number listed for sale on average, by his agent peer group (‘Peers’). If this number is substantially lower than his peers, John may be new to the business, a buyer’s agent, or part of a team where the team leader claims credit for all listings and sales. If his listing count is much greater than his peers, then John may be too busy to effectively service another client.
% Dual Rep - Same Agent
?This is the percent of John’s transactions where he and his brokerage represented both the seller and buyer as the agent and broker of record, vs. his agent peer group (‘Peers’). ). Ideally this percent should be lower than John’s peers because sharing an agent and broker can work against either the buyer or seller, resulting in a lower or higher selling price than otherwise would be expected.
Price Ranges Represented
?These are the price ranges of listings John listed or sold on behalf of John buyer and seller clients, along with the number of listings in each price range in parenthesis, e.g. $300K (22) means 22 listings in the $300-399K range were represented by this agent. Picking an agent with ample experience in your price range is a good idea.
