One of the factors to keep in mind while listing multiple properties is that most professional real estate firms provide property management services. You might argue that it’s an anomaly to place your properties with one real estate agency that you know and trust as well as provides property management services instead of putting your eggs in different baskets which are difficult to keep track of.

It must be noted however, that the nature of the properties you have also deserve consideration before listing with one real estate agent – is it off-plan, a luxury villa or a small apartment in Chania. If it’s a combination, can the real estate agent manage all of these parameters?

Other questions would include your financial goals and see whether your agent and you are on the same page. Discuss whether you would want to sell long-term or rent this property short-term. It would be important for you to do the necessary research to find the firms that deal in the similar type of property in your area.
