if he doesn't give you name card (by saying that he has run out of them), be cautious....
after you get his name card (and even if he doesn't - ask for the company name), call the company up and check
ask people around about the real estate company and the agent

That being the case, might as well call Malaysian Institute of Estate Agents to check the credibility of the company from the society's president.

What to Ask
1) Recent transaction done for the area. If the agent can tell you many transaction then the agent specialised in the area.
2) If he can answer 1, then he will know of the future development plans in the area.
3) He should also which is the best and worse units and why.

but also beware of the agent "bull-shitting" and "disgracing" your smaller amount of transaction compared to his portfolio

for example, the agent who wanted to cheat me said "what you scared? I deal with millions ringgit property, yours is just like what RM 200k+"

if he ever says that, walk away

Good point Leongal. My purpose is to test his knowledge of the area. Of course you take what he say with a grain of salt. I also agree with what I put in bold. That is not the way to win a client's trust.

additional point, anyone died in the house before whether its natural death or committing suicide.

Good point. If I am the agent I will tell you, "not that I know of" even though there had been 2 or 3 cases. The truth for this info will kill the sale.

This is as good as the info that a person had commited sucide in the house.

If cant find kids below, dogs would do the job too.

On the festival of hungry ghost, my dog will bark like crazy. It is not the same bark when he is on heat.

Yeah, these hairline cracks can be a bad sign. Furthermore there is defect just behind the unit which could be related.
