Outside of 'How's the Market'?  I would say personal questions about their home or potential home, so that would be different for each person who is either a seller or looking to be a buyer Kathryn Messina.  Every one is different.

They vary with each situation...buyers, sellers, investors, renters all have different needs. The most common (not necessarily more important) questions I get in general are the usual...how's the market, should I buy - sell now or wait?

I always like the question "is this a good time to sell?".... I was always a listing agent, and that was an important question for me.... it was an opening to blend in with the answer that included making an appointment to tell them what the home was worth in that market...

There are so many but they will always ask you how the real estate market is and that is your cue to let them know about it. Not with an answer "It's busy"..."Tell them inventory is very low and buyer demand is high. Do you know anyone thinking of selling because we need inventory?"
