For agents, go to Trulia, Zillow, redfin,  and look for top producers.

I've also worked for agencies where it took quite a bit of time just to run number for someone or submit a quote request.  

Seller financing seems like it may be a viable option and should save your family member the need to pay for agent fees/closing costs.
