[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Starting next week, we're going to meet with realtors to interview/find out if we can work together/find the best one for us.

We have some specific to the realtor questions already planned- are there others that you have asked/wish you would have asked?

What rates do you charge? 
What services do those rates cover? 
Do you have preferred lenders/title companies?
Do you have a preferred handyman/repairman to fix buyer requests?

Then we have other general questions that we'll ask to get an understanding of how they think:
Explain the selling process
What kinds of things must be disclosed?
What new laws are taking effect that might impact our sale? 
Can you talk about loan types
Can you explain the different contingencies we might face?

You're really asking the wrong questions.

You want to know what they're going to do to find you a buyer. What's their marketing plan? What's their online presence?

Why are you interested in loan types if you're selling? Ditto, who cares what their lender is? You're selling... Or are you thinking of using them on both sides -- you sell and then you buy? If that's the case, definitely ask what they will do for you on the sell-side commission.
