Once you find a broker that you’re comfortable with and has made you a fair offer, call the better business bureau and find out if they have a good or bad history. Check to see how many complaints have been made against them in the past year and their entire history, to make sure they’re not on a downward spiral over the past 12 months.
Remember, you’re going to have to get this agreement past a judge in your local court, so make sure you have gotten some good advice along the way. I highly recommend a financial planner at least, or if we’re talking some more substantial amounts of money, an estate planning attorney.
