What to look for in a real estate agent?

I'll third the above. Don't sign anything until you find the property you want to buy and are ready to put earnest money down.

A good place to start looking is with the local realtors association. They will have a list of realtors that are members in good standing.

More than anything it is a gut feeling. Don't be afraid of moving on to another realtor. This person should work for you not against you. If you say you can only afford up to 200k and they are showing you 275k then you have a problem.
