Some Saskatoon agents run with an assistant or a licensed partner handling paperwork and showings while they focus on pricing and negotiation, which can be a genuine advantage if it is disclosed upfront. The Saskatchewan Real Estate Commission licenses every individual working on your file, assistant or lead agent, so ask each name for their own licence status too. The problem is when a well-known name is the one you meet at listing, and someone you have never spoken to shows up to run your open house or field your offers.
Ask how many other active listings the agent is personally carrying right now, since an agent juggling 20 or more files at once has less time for any single seller regardless of good intentions. A smaller active load usually means faster response and more attention to your specific sale.
