What Is the Best Vehicle for a Real Estate Agent?
July 6, 2010 | In: Uncategorized
I’m not a flashy person, but after 15 years in Sales, I’m noticing that people do judge you from your Image. It’s time to put my domestic to rest, but I’m having a hard time picking a good vehicle with price and reliability. I’m looking for any suggestions. I like the Lexus but at $55,000 minumum, it doesn’t make much sense for tax deduction up here in Canada. Some help Pleassse.
Thanks everyone so far, I think I’m going to check out a used X5. Just wondering about reliability. German cars are notorious for high maintenance costs, they sure aren’t what they used to be. That’s why I started to look into Japanese cars, but some of them just don’t have the look i’m going for. Does anyone know anything about the BMW X5’s?

Acura TL is a fantastic car. Also the toyota prius (great gas milage). I also really like the convertible Pontiac G6. None of those are too expensive, and all look good.

Try Cadilac or Infinity, gives the luxurary look with added reliablity.

I would think a 4 door 4 wheel drive SUV would be a good choice. You must have to travel to show homes and land in snowy weather or gain access to remote area where drive ways have not been built yet.

you’d be silly to spend that much…you can get a loaded gmc envoy for 38…you would love it and look good.

A Cadillac or a Lincoln. They are big and roomy, comfortable and make a statement. You will be driving clients from one location to another. Either of these vehicles will provide your client with a stylish and comfortable smooth ride.

Its a matter of taste. When I bought my house I didn’t care what my realtor was driving. You might consider leasing it instead of financing if its used soley for your real estate biz. I have my eye on a highlander these days and I’m only 5′3.

For a real estate agent, domestic cars are no good because of their quality. In my opinion if you care about your image then you gotta have a european car or suv. The new BMW X5 is your best bet.

I’d go with a big roomy DOMESTIC SUV. My agent bought some Japanese piece of crap and now we have to take my car because my head keeps hitting the ceiling in her car.
