What Kind of Car is Best for a Real Estate Agent?

Getting rid of these blood sucking creatures is a major problem. There are many professional exterminators in the market that is equipped with all the ingredients to get rid of them. But there are also some home remedies that can help you to get these blood sucking creatures away from your sweet home before you could hire a exterminator, thoroughly wash, vacuum or pure all surfaces and bedding, normally use hot water and a dryer in the affected areas, vacuum the mattresses, seal them in plastic and dry them in the hot sun provided that possible, steam clean carpets, spray cracks and crevices with the insecticides that are meant for killing bed bugs and if it still persists go ahead and hire a professional. So letu00e2u0080u0099s start killing!

The 2010 Toyota Prius. It is the third generation Prius and I'm convinced Toyota has mastered the Green and Eco-friendly part of the Industry. It is a sharp contender with Honda but I personally think Toyota is nicer. They even have a hybrid Prius... but the standard gets about 51/48mpg! Its bigger, better and faster.

My Saturn is pretty crappy at times. I wouldn't call it reliable. If I could go back, and I'd probably invest in something more long term, such as a Honda or Toyota. Those things will run for years and years.

I would think some people would have hard time gettimng in a suv. I know some older people do and even shorter people sometimes. I think a nice four door midsize or larger car would be good. Not sure how many people you drive around most drive themself.

I think you should drive a nice vehicle that YOU like. My preference is my full size SUV. I don't really worry about gas prices, they are what they are. If I need to get out in the country to show land I don't have to worry about it.

Personally I prefer a mid-size SUV. I just like having the extra space and versatility. I know it's not as "green" as I could be.

There was an interesting article in the Wall Street Journal the other day, that showed although the gas mileage was better on the smaller cars, the insurance was typically higher, which offsets some of the savings. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122471188978360023...

When we looked for a car a few years ago the main things we wanted were a navigation system and we wanted to be able to put the contracts in the glove compartment without having to fold them. We got a larger car with good gas mileage. But in retrospect we should have gotten a smaller car

I currently drive a Dodge Caravan. The gas mileage isn't great, only 18mpg city, but it works well with my clients which are mostly families. One thing that has worked out great is it has a DVD system, it gives the kids something to keep them occupied while we drive from house to house.

I do agree that when working with higher end clients that a higher end vechile, say a BMW or Mercedes, would be a wise choice.

I find that most people prefer to drive their own cars.
Sometimes its better to not have alot of talking time with the client. Also it could be a safety thing.
Right now I have a Toyota Avalon
it has leather and sun-roof.
My next car is just going to be a coupe.

I just saw on Yahoo news that there are 6 eco friendly cars faster than the Porsche 911... That is the best vehicle for a real estate agent!

Do you need a big vehicle? I have a large suv and I find myself needed the extra space less and less every month. The gas mileage sucks but now there are lots of good deals out there on some of the bigger vehicles.

I recently bought a two year old Ford Escape Hybrid. It is a SUV (not a huge one) and it has leather & a nav system. I got it for 18K and am very happy with it so far. It averages around 30mpg, 28 on the highway and a little better in the city. I figure that I am saving between 200-250 per month on gas.

I say drive something practical and reliable that gets good gas mileage unless you work exclusively with very high end clients - then get a nice, expensive car. If you suddenly find yourself working with a very high end buyer, rent something.

You hit the nail on the head, the most important thing is reliability and cleanliness. Unless you are in a high end niche market a lot of times having a fancy car can make your clients uncomfortable.

You may as well go for a Hummer, give the impression from the start!

Never mind the greenness or lack of it.

I think SUV's are best however they don't do well in high gas prices like now. So maybe a small luxury car ie: Acura TSX (which is what I have) or a Honda Accord make the most sense. It really comes down to personal preference and what youu00e2u0080u0099re trying to do. A lot of agents get caught up in this question as if a car would get them business, it does help validate you do know something but that will be found out regardless getting business is the most important part new agents should focus on.
