reos: As A Buyer, You Think There's An Advantage To Using The Listing Agent To Represent You? - 03/28/11 03:21 PM
It happens all the time. I get a call on one of my listings from a buyer. After a few minutes of discussion, it's clear to me they did not just start looking. They have made many calls, seen many homes, met many agents, some of these callers have even written offers. Why have they not selected an agent to work with exclusively?

What are other agents experiencing?
