The Exact Questions Josh Finigan Wants You to Ask Before You Hire Any Listing Agent

HGTV Videos: Cinematic listing tour videos that sell the lifestyle
Aggressive Marketing: $26k/month marketing machine promoting your home
White-Glove Service: Every detail handled, every showing maximized

If you’re interviewing listing agents in Charlotte, you’re not hiring a tour guide. You’re hiring the person responsible for your equity.

Josh Finigan’s stance is blunt: the right questions expose competence fast—and protect you from smooth talkers.

Ask questions that reveal strategy, not personality

Here are the categories Josh wants every seller to cover (and he welcomes these questions himself):

Pricing: “Show me the comps you’d use and tell me your list-price recommendation and why.”
Marketing: “What’s your launch plan in week 1? What do you pay for vs ‘just post on MLS’?”
Negotiation: “Give examples of how you protected sellers during inspection/appraisal.”
Process: “How do you communicate? Who does what on your team? What’s the weekly cadence?”
Proof: “What are your results in my price range and area? What happens if we don’t get traction in 10–14 days?”

Zillow and NAR both publish seller interview question sets for choosing an agent.
