Real estate agent and real estate companies are very different notions for one thing, i.e. real estate market. It is so because real estate agent advice may be very subjective even against the common practice of the company this very agent is working for. Whether or not one should look for and ask for a new real estate agent advice is a matter of personal preference and has nothing in common with professionalism of a certain agent.

First of all, the advice anyone may be looking for must be classified as the question related to commercial, residential or another type of realty; and this is very important division as the questions one may ask for vary from agent to agent, due to their specialty. For example, commercial real estate agent advice should be of some kind of commercial property, but one should not expect from the openness of the agent as the agent may have his or her own interest in providing or in not providing for a certain piece of information and during particular period of time for reasons he or she would not like to talk about. If there is a chance to obtain a free real estate agent advice, almost for sure this advice will be concerning either the personal issue of the asking person or about general procedure related to something of his or her professional activity. The rest, which may touch someone else's privacy or professional etiquette, will stay beyond the conversation.
