Interviewing apartment brokers

[Chris Wilson]

How many brokers would you interview and how far in advance of contemplating a sale would you do so? What would be the top questions you would ask them? It's really that opening sentence that I am curious about, 7 unit property in the San Diego area. Local vs National firms? I know for homes that there is such a thing as local area expertise, is that true for apartments as well?

I have NO desire to waste anyone's time ( including my own ) but like many other owners receive numerous inquiries and if the day does come to sell in the next year or two what would be an advisable screening/interviewing process.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts on the topic!
