Part-Time Agent, Full-Time Headache

Hiring a realtor isn’t a formality—it’s a high-stakes decision that shapes your money, timeline, and stress level. We break down the exact questions that separate seasoned pros from well-meaning amateurs, starting with the biggest filter of all: full-time commitment. Markets move fast, and so should your agent. You’ll hear how experience shows up in the details—clean contracts, sharp pricing, quick pivots—and why reps across hundreds of deals matter more than a glossy bio.

We also dig into credentials and what they signal today. ABR, SRS, and broker status can still reflect added skill, but only if they map to your goals. Then we move to hard numbers: how many buyers and sellers your agent represented last year, in what neighborhoods and price ranges, and how those outcomes compare to list-to-sale price trends. Expect practical talk about setting expectations for multiple offers, using neighborhood-specific stats to write smarter offers, and coaching both buyers and sellers to keep emotion from wrecking good decisions.

Agency and representation can feel opaque, so we make it plain. Learn the differences between exclusive representation, dual agency, and appointed agency across markets, and how those rules affect the advice you get. We round things out with the hidden engine of most smooth closings: a vetted vendor network. The right lender, inspector, title company, attorney, and contractors don’t just solve problems—they make your offer look stronger and your timeline more reliable. Finally, we share how we communicate from first meeting to clear-to-close, blending milestone updates with real human check-ins when special issues pop up, and why recent client references are the simplest truth test.

Let's do a little role playing. Okay, we'll do a little role playing.

Mike Ouverson 3:00

Spicing it up today.

Jason Walgrave 3:01

I'm gonna I'm gonna be the buyer. I'm gonna be buyer.

Mike Ouverson 3:04

Jason's a buyer.

Full-Time vs Part-Time Agents

Jason Walgrave 3:06

Buyer, uh, what should we call him? Billy Buyer? Buyer Billy. I'm I'm buyer Billy, okay. And so Marcus, um uh you're a real estate agent, and Mike, I'm gonna you're gonna I'm gonna have you pretend like you're a real estate agent too. Because I'm gonna ask Marcus a question and then I'm gonna ask you a question. All right, so I'm Billy Buyer. I'm sitting down with Marcus and his his team, and I got some questions for you. Marcus, how long have you been in residential real estate? And is this your full-time job? Great question.

Marcus Walgrave 3:39

Um, I think first the start it out with is the brokers that that I work under, Hague Realtors, we were founded in 1945. So they are the uh oldest real estate brokerage in the state of South Dakota. Um, and we're also um you know the the number one brokerage in terms of of volume and and second in terms of agent size. And so the just the amount of resources that they have acquired uh over the 80 um you know plus years um is incredible. And then personally, uh got licensed in uh 2014 and have been doing it full-time since then. No side gigs, no side hustles. It's full-time real estate. It's important, uh folks.

Jason Walgrave 4:24

I mean, I mean it is important. And look, I I know a lot of um I know a lot of part-time real estate agents that are fantastic people. I really like them. They're good people, they're good family people, or you know, whatever the case is. Um I have yet to see a part-time real estate agent in all the years that I've been doing this. I have yet to see a part-time real estate agent make it in the business. Um, now that doesn't mean you can't be full-time for 10, 20, 30 years and then kind of semi-retire to a part-time status. I th I've seen that work. I have yet to see anybody come into this business on a on a part-time basis and make it. Um real estate's a full-time job. It's a it's it's more than a full-time job. I mean, I mean it is. You think about the hours Marcus and Mike and that that we put in every week. Um, and I'm not talking about office hours, I'm talking about working hours. I mean, it's basically from five in the morning until 10 o'clock at night every single day. I mean, those those are the hours that that you're on call. I mean, you're on call all the time. And so um, I just don't think it's possible to do a great job if you're not full-time in the business. And so it's a great question to ask.

Marcus Walgrave 5:37

There's so many moving parts in real estate, right? I mean, Mike in the finance world, um, you know, may maybe four or five years ago, uh, you know, it would take a month to to move a rate, but now it's like you know, half a day, and rates can jump around. And and and that's if if you're not dialed in, uh, you're you're not gonna be able to fully service your client.

Credentials And Designations That Matter

Jason Walgrave 5:59

Questions to ask when choosing a realtor. Uh Marcus, I'm gonna come back to you on this one uh as well. Uh do you have any designations or certifications?

Marcus Walgrave 6:09

Yes, I have the accredited buyer representative and the seller uh representative as well, the SRS and the ABR. Um, I'm a real estate broker, not a broker associate. Uh, so you know that there's kind of some additional um level of experience to to earn that title. Um, and so you know, uh yes, that there's there's more more to it than than just just having the the real estate license to practice real estate.

Jason Walgrave 6:37

I feel like the designations were were more important in in previous years. Um, you know, I when I got my license in in 99, uh some of the continuing education courses um were those designation courses. They counted as as same as C credits, right? And so um I got the GRI and the ABR and the relocation, and I mean, I don't know. I I I think I have 10 or 12 different designations. It was to a point on my on my business card that there's just there's too many, too many letters and too many, you know, abbreviations to it. And but it's I I always figured, hey, if I've got to take C anyway, continue education, why not do something that that you know, um I'm gonna learn a little bit more, or I'm gonna be um, you know, new construction specialist, or a you know, rec relocation specialist, or a you know, I mean there there's there's a lot of really good ones out there, so it's a great question to ask. You know, what are you doing um outside the minimum uh that's required? Um, are do you you know, are you a um listing uh or a seller expert? You know, do you know how to market homes? And you know, are you a buyer's um representative? I mean, there's a different thing. So I think it's a great question, folks. We're talking about questions asked when choosing a realtor. Uh next on our list, uh Mike, um, what is your business philosophy? That's a tough one.

Mike Ouverson 8:03

My business philosophy, um, being a you know, being the part-time agent I am, I fake it till I make it, is my philosophy is. Um is that good? Is that what you're looking for?

Jason Walgrave 8:14

Oh, that is honest, isn't it? Got the honesty part figured out. You know, a lot of a lot of agents and teams, they have uh mission statements or they've got you know their um, I mean, we have um we have a full uh bio uh with a resume. Um we have all of our certifications, we have our community contributions, we've got I mean, we've got our educational back, we've got it all in there. You know, I think it you know you don't see that a whole lot having you know agents having resumes. My my belief has always been every seller that I meet with and buyer, but but um it's a job interview, right? And so if I'm going to a job interview, what am I gonna have? My resume and my bio and my work experience, maybe some references, um, some some testimonials or or you know examples of folks that I've worked with in the past. Um, and and it's it's good to it's good to show those things. It's uh it's okay for a consumer to ask for those things, right? And so what is your philosophy? What is your bio? What is your resume? Um, all good questions to ask um your realtor when you're interviewing. Folks, we're talking about questions to ask when choosing a realtor. This one is, I mean, this could go to both of you, Marcus. I'll give this one to you. How many buyers did you and your real estate brokerage represent last year? So this could be, you know, you, your team, and and your brokerage. I'd probably add those three, you, your team, and your brokerage. Um, a question that you know that that buyers and if you're if you're wanting to buy a home and you're looking to hire an agent that works with buyers, it's a good question to ask. How many buyers did you work with last year? Or or if you're talking to Mike, how many how many loans did you do last year? You know, I mean it's kind of important, you know. If Mike's like, oh dude, had a big year last year, did 13, you know, more than one per month last year, you know. Well, that's I'm a little concerned about that, Mike. You know, so um good questions asked. It's important.

Track Record And Volume As Proof

Mike Ouverson 10:15

I mean, it's one of those things where everyone's like, well, all real estate agents are licensed, right? So can there really be that big of a difference? Huge, right? Um, it's kind of like, well, yeah, all heart surgeons, you know, went through med school and they obviously passed that. But do you want the guy who like is book smart, hasn't done one yet? Yeah, right? Or do you want do you want the doctor who's successfully completed X amount of like hundreds of you know heart surgery procedures or whatever? Right? They're both they're both heart surgeons, right? They're both licensed, they're both like ready to rock and roll, but like which one, which one would you go to? Would you go to the book smart one or you go to the one that's got the experience? Give me the experience all day long, right?

Jason Walgrave 10:58

Yep.

Mike Ouverson 10:59

So knowing the amount of transactions that an agent has worked on, whether you're a buyer or seller, asking that specific question. I mean, experience is a huge thing in this business. We all know that.

Jason Walgrave 11:08

It is it is, it's huge. Ask questions to ask uh when choosing a realtor. We're gonna do one more and then we're gonna jump over to Jeff O'Brien's legal minute. Um, what um what's the average variation between your initial offers and final sale price? And so this question has to do with oh man, this one changes so much depending on how hot the market is, right? Last week we talked about buying in a tight market, um, or maybe that was a couple weeks ago, whenever. But um depends on the market you're in. But that's a good question to ask. I like to provide my buyers with stats. Okay, here's what's going on currently in the market. Let's take a look at last month. Homes were selling for you know X amount, you know, percentage compared to the list price, or maybe they're they're looking at uh a specific neighborhood. If they got a house that they want to make an offer on, I'm gonna I'm gonna do a CMA. Uh for that house specifically, I'm gonna take a look at the neighborhood. What's the percentages? You know, I want I want some data. I want some data so that I can um properly advise my clients on on you know what their offer should be.

Offer Price vs Sale Price Strategy

Marcus Walgrave 12:16

Yeah, providing that information you know in that introductory meeting, or whether it's a seller or a buyer, I mean it's super valuable for them because obviously, if you're a seller, you're gonna have a general idea of how it's gonna play out when you do receive offers. You can minimize the emotion uh uh factor. Uh and the same goes with buyers as well. Um, if you know you're going into a super tight price range, that's what you want to buy in, and you're already being told, hey, this is going to be uh a good chance of multiple offers. If that happens, here's what to expect. Um, you know, the stats can be really helpful, especially when they are specific to the individual. Um you can speak stats generally. I mean, we hear national stats all the time on the national uh media outlets. Um, and and then when you look at our specific uh regions, they could be drastically different. You know, so so you know, having stats that are specific to exactly what you're trying to achieve in in your real estate goals is is very key.

Jason Walgrave 13:15

Folks, we're talking about questions to ask when hiring a real estate agent. Be sure to check out our website, ushometalk.com. We've got a real estate hotline number set up, 612-234-7585. Our real estate hotline number, 24-hour number. Call or text anytime. Connect with Marcus, Mike, myself, Evan, all of our fantastic partners, 612-234-7585. We're gonna go to Jeff O'Brien's legal minute and then we'll come back and finish up questions to ask.

Jeff O'Brien 13:45

This is Jeff O'Brien, attorney with Hush Blackwell, with a U.S. Home Talk legal minute. Earnest money is compensation paid at the time a real estate purchase agreement is signed. The deposit serves one primary purpose. It shows that the buyer is serious about following through on the purchase. Earnest money is not the same thing as a down payment, but it's often included as part of the down payment. From a buyer's point of view, earnest money along with a contract indicates that he or she really does intend to buy the house. Once a purchase agreement has been signed, the seller isn't supposed to sell the house to someone else. The seller might back out if a better deal comes up, even with the risk of potential penalties. When earnest money is involved in backing up, it becomes harder for sellers. Because most people are unwilling to walk away from their payment. The value of earnest money associated with the purchase agreement varies, and the terms for running the earnest money are spelled up in the contract, not just the amount of money that will be paid. But what will happen to that money if it is paid but the deal subsequently falls through? Buyers, for example, might want a refund clause in the event that they cannot get financing. Well, sellers may desire a forfeit clause that if buyers walk away for a petty reason, the seller gets to hold on to that earnest money as compensation for his or her time. This is Jeff O'Brien, attorney with Hosh Blackwell with a U.S. Home Talk legal med.

Legal Minute: Earnest Money Basics

Jason Walgrave 14:49

That's good stuff. Thank you, Jeff O'Brien. Talking about questions to ask when hiring a real estate agent, a realtor. Um, next question. Will you represent me exclusively? Or will you represent the buyer or seller as well? What does that mean? So um this is this is a good question. And keep in mind uh if you've got a brokerage, so for example, Remax Avengers Plus, the brokerage that I'm with, there's about 500 agents. Um there's there's a pretty good chance that we may be in um dual agency, meaning representing both buyer and and seller in a transaction. When when a brokerage, so brokerages are are the entity that actually holds the listings, right? So you got 500 agents, you got agent, you know, one and agent, you know, 150. Um, maybe they've never even met, but they're under the same brokerage. So if one's working with a buyer and the other one's working with the seller, those two end up doing a transaction together, it's considered dual agency. Now, with that said, there are some sellers that we work with, and they're very they're very upfront in the beginning. They say, look, if the buyer calls you directly, I don't want you to represent the buyer. I want you to exclusively represent me as a seller. I I am not going to agree to dual agency. Most of the time, you know, sellers will will make it a per case decision, you know, meaning you know, buyer calls up, you know, calls me or Marcus directly and wants to over offer you know X amount over list price with almost no contingencies, they don't the seller probably doesn't care anymore, right? You know, so but but it's a great question to ask, you know, will you represent me exclusively or or is it possible you'll be representing the buyer or the seller as well? Folks are talking about questions to ask when choosing a realtor. This one is a good one, Jason.

Exclusive Representation And Agency Types

Marcus Walgrave 16:37

If I could as well you guys service the Twin Cities area, Minnesota. Um, you know, my primary market is Sioux Falls, South Dakota. And so how we define uh well, one we don't have dual agency. Uh we that that that agency is is labeled as limited agency. And in in the scenario that you provided, um a brokerage can represent a buyer and can represent a seller and not fall in what we deem as a limited agency. Um we have what is called appointed agency. Um so you know to in your example that that only really applies for our market in South Dakota, uh, in the event that that a team, so as myself as the team leader of South Dakota home team, if uh myself and my team are appointed to represent, and then if if myself or someone within my team had the buyer, then we would fall into that limited agency, which is a similar world as a dual agency, but as the brokerage, um you know, we we don't we don't fall into limited agency because agent one and agent two hundred uh have the buyer and seller even though they have no team relationship. It's it's considered an appointed agency.

Jason Walgrave 17:50

So honestly, Marcus, I think that's a better way to do it. Yeah, yeah.

Marcus Walgrave 17:53

I mean, I think it's kind of ridiculous that you know Agent 500, who you might be in office in the northeast sector of the twin cities, which is three hours away from you, and then and then have to have the conversation like, well, we're a dual agent. I don't know who this agent is. Never met him. And they're two or three hours away from us, but you know, so I I I kind of agree. I feel like you know we have a little bit of a better structure.

Jason Walgrave 18:17

There's a few things in South Dakota that are done a little bit better than than in Minnesota here. Just a just a couple, just a couple sometimes the weather gets a little bit nicer, you know. Folks were talking about questions to ask when hiring a realtor. Next on our list, this can go to you, Mike. Um, I mean, it certainly is is relevant to U.S. home talk and what we do here. Um, can you recommend any service providers who can uh help us obtain a mortgage, uh make a home repair, maybe do an inspection, maybe an attorney, some insurance. Uh, do you have any service providers that you can recommend?

Mike Ouverson 18:50

It's a big deal that because there's what 11 different parties, I think, involved in a real estate transaction from the real estate agent to the title company to your insurance agent to the mortgage guy to the appraiser to the it keeps on going and going, right? Um, and so just having having experience with people in those different fields and like figuring out who's the best of the best. Like Jason's been doing you've been real didn't you've been a real estate agent since when 99 or 2000, 2001?

Marcus Walgrave 19:21

2071, right?

Mike Ouverson 19:23

2023, 2023, okay, good. Yep, three years solid, right? Um, no, but seriously, like 26 years, right? Was it 2000?

Jason Walgrave 19:32

Yeah, 99.

Appointed vs Dual Agency Across States

Mike Ouverson 19:33

99, right? Yeah, right. It's like so you've worked with several different title companies and title closers, you've worked with several home inspectors, you've worked with several of all in everyone and every aspect of real estate, right? And there's certainly certain people in each industry that stick out above and beyond the others, right? Right. And so now you've built that team around you to say, look, like, here's my title company, because I've worked with hundreds of title companies and hundreds of title closers. And this person, in my opinion, is the best. They're the best of the best, right? Here's my home inspector, because that person is the best of the best out of the hundreds of home inspectors that my buyers and stuff have had throughout the years. And so having that nice tight network of I got a guy. So if you have a situation, I got a guy or a gal, and I know this guy or gal very well from all the experience from all the hundreds of deals I've done throughout the years, I mean, that's that's huge.

Jason Walgrave 20:25

It it's a big deal, and it and it shows how important that the the team concept is. Um and I'm not talking about just a real estate agent team, I'm talking about the team, Mike. I mean you and me and Marcus and Evan on the insurance, you know, trademark on the on the title work, Jeff O'Brien on the legal side. I mean, I mean it it's a a real estate transaction, is it it's complicated, and there's there's so many moving parts, and there's so many hands that touch that file to make sure that it's done successfully and and to the satisfaction of our client. And so having those partnerships and relationships are key to to making it go as smooth as it possibly can and and to have as as little amount of stress as possible for our clients.

Marcus Walgrave 21:08

It's not just for the smoothness and the the uh uh the servicing our clients, but also it's that big picture, right? I mean, the ultimate goal is to achieve our clients' real estate goal. And and but it it it takes two to tangle. You know, it's very likely that uh the people that we are representing um is gonna be a different party than than than the other side of the transaction. So we talked about this on a previous show. You know, when when the other realtor, even though it might be from a different broker, it says, Hey, I know Jason, I've done deals with Jason, I'm gonna tell my client this offer is solid, we should work with them. I know it's not quite as good as the other one, but I know Jason and his, you know, the team, Mike being the lender, they're gonna get us to the finish line. And it even goes beyond that, too, in terms of like the the vendor list that we're talking about. You know, when When I call my handyman, I say, Hey, you know, can can you go uh uh uh do this job for uh my my seller client? You know, that that handyman knows that they're they're like, yeah, I'm gonna put this as a priority because I know uh I'm gonna be able to get the work done and I'm not gonna have to worry about getting stiffed or anything because this realtor has my back. Right now, you know, anytime we build these relationships, it it's that. It's like, hey, I trust me, you you and I we're on the same page. Um, whatever happens, you know, if you get the work done, you know, we're gonna make sure we we get you paid and we're getting you taken care of, regardless of where it's coming from. Even if it's coming out of my own pocket, that you you're the work's gonna get done. And that just makes everybody you know super excited about working together and and getting getting deals done.

Your Agent’s Vendor Network Advantage

Jason Walgrave 22:45

Folks, we're talking about questions to ask when hiring a realtor, only a couple left on our list here. Uh, next one, uh, second to the last. How will you keep me informed about the process of my transaction? And this is a question for you know, Mike. Um, I mean, Marcus, you know, we we all have, I think, similar ways to stay in contact, but you know, Mike, how do you keep informed with your clients throughout the process?

Mike Ouverson 23:09

I mean, there's a bunch of different ways. I mean, on the loan side of things, we have like an automated system, right? So as it goes through, like as your loan goes through, hey, it's submitted to processing, submitted to underwriting, underwritten approval, clear to close, appraisals ordered, appraisal order, all that stuff. We have that stuff there too. But um, I also have like a human team that also provides updates along the way, right? So we're watching this along the way, and if there's something that is important, like that we should bring up, like, hey, we just reached this mouse. Maybe there was um like a one-off situation, right? There's a one-off situation where there's it's just not your standalone normal process. There was something that was gonna come up, we're waiting for something to happen. I don't have an specific example now, but it's like, okay, so when that happens, like we gotta know, we gotta let them know that this happened, right? Yeah, because maybe I identified like an issue up front. Hey, underwriting might have an issue with this piece of it, your job history or something like that, right? So, like, there might be a little bit more we need, there might be a letter of explanation, there might have to be a little bit more documentation, might be more something that we have to get along the way, but let's stick with what we got now, and then we'll let them ask us for more stuff down the road. Like if that circumstance comes up, then we're physically reaching out to them directly to say, Hey, remember that conversation we had about this? Good news. They didn't ask for anything else. We're good. We're good, we're good, right? Or or they did ask for something, but it's kind of what we expected, right? So just get me this and that, squash that, and we're done, and we'll be clear to close.

Communication Plans And Milestone Updates

Jason Walgrave 24:32

Folks, we're talking about questions to ask when choosing or hiring rather a real estate agent, a realtor. Uh, one less, uh, one left on our list. Um, but be sure to check out our website, uswometalk.com, uh, our real estate hotline number, which is 24 hours. Call or text anytime 612-234-7585. Uh, call or text anytime to that number. Last on our list, uh, questions to ask when hiring a realtor. Uh, can you provide me with contact information um of your three most recent clients? I mean, that this is one I I don't I've been asked or twice in all these years, you know, but but I've got I would say most 80% or more of my clients would be more than happy than to take a phone call from from somebody that's interviewing me. Um and you know, the other 20%, you know, they just they don't reply to anything, so I'm not gonna ask them. But but it's it's a it's a good question to ask, you know, can I talk to somebody you've most recently worked with? You know, and and uh you know it's I mean some agents are really good about getting reviews, and you know, and I mean Mike, you got you and your team have a bazillion reviews, you guys do an excellent job at it. Um I know this because I because I fill one out every time I do a deal with you, right? Um but it but it's a good question to ask, you know, and I think um I do that. So so when companies contact me and they lead gen specifically, lead gen companies call and they say, Oh, I got this lead gen program, and you know, you should take a look at it, and you know, here's the 20-minute demo and blah blah blah, right? Um I always end that with, and I usually take those, you know, 15, 20 minute demos because I'm curious, but I'll end it with um, hey, I'd like to talk to um, I'd like to talk to like three agents that you're currently working with. You know, and if they're like they don't get back to me, or or if the pause is too long, then I'll what do you mean you can't provide that? You know, if you guys are doing a good job, I just want to talk to three that you're working with right now. And so they will most of the time they will. They'll say, okay, it's so and so and so and so, and I'll look up their information and give them a call. That's an okay question to ask, you know, and and if you're a full-time agent and you're a professional and you're doing a great job, um, you'll have people that are willing to you know speak on your behalf.

You know, like hey, can I can I see a couple that you just been or the a couple can I talk to the homeowners that just bought for me in the last year or two and see how the process went and and uh um great way to do your due diligence.
