Using Two Agents

My first reaction was that I had absolutely no opinion.  Same with  my husband, who is a Realtor.  But the more we thought about it, the more we felt you’ll be better off working with one agent, assuming your present homes are located fairly close to each other.

Try this: Invite three different firms to send someone over to look at one of the houses you intend to sell, and both of you listen to the presentations each agent will give you.  If no one strikes you as the right person, call three other firms and meet their agents at the other house. You should be able to find the right fit among six agents, and life will be a lot simpler if you stick with that person for everything, including the purchase of your next home.
