• Experience tenure - Ask the agent how old he is in the market. The Cayman Property market is a highly active one and agents have to be agile while dealing in it. The best way to learn about this market is through experience and that is gained first hand on field.

• Area - Ask him whether he is familiar with your area. Cayman real estate scenarios differ according to the area where the property is being bought or sold. Rates differ a lot as do amenities. It is important that the agent is fluent with the area that you intend to do business at.

• Number of successful deals - Ask the agent how many houses he has sold till date. The number has to be visibly relative with the number of years he has worked for.
