I had a home that I couldn't sell for 10 years. I decided to try HomeLight and chose the first agent they provided. My home sold immediately! If I sell another home, I will definitely call HomeLight.

As first time buyers and new to the state, we needed to find a good agent and couldn’t rely on our own networks. We found HomeLight and they provided an excellent experience throughout the process.

When is the right time to hire a real estate agent in Hayward?
It's going to depend on the temperature of the Hayward housing market but we generally recommend that you hire a real estate agent as soon as you're thinking of selling your home. Generally speaking, that's anywhere from 3 to 6 months prior to your desired move date.

On average, the top performing 5% of seller's agents generally command a higher selling price (+9%) than the average real estate agent.

So, whether you're buying or selling your house, your odds of making more money on the transaction are higher if you work with a top performing agent.
