"We just want to look at houses, but every agent we call wants us to sign a contract before we ever go out and look. We feel that the agent that finds the house we want should be the one that gets paid."
This is a common response I get when a potential buyer is presented with a brokerage agreement. They feel that I am trying to force them into a commitment before that have seen the first property. They think I'm painting them into a corner, forcing them against their will. But Consider this:
The widespread use of the buyer's brokerage agreement was a CONSUMER DEMAND, not a concoction of the real estate industry. It s the aftermath of litigation involving agency and the duties of the agent. Buyers demanded representation, and brokerage firms paid huge damages for creating the illusion of representation without a contractual agreement.
Now think about this: Would you hire a roofer, a plumber, or even someone to cut your grass without a written proposal? I doubt that you would. Yet on the biggest single ticket item you will be purchasing, your home, you don't expect the agent's duties, responsibilities and fees to be clearly defined in writing? That's not really very practical, is it?
In Georgia, it is also codified. The Official Code of Georgia, 10-6a et al seq. states that no one is represented as a client by an agent in a real estate transaction without first entering into a written agreement defining the relationship between a real estate agent and a client.
So when I ask you to sign the agreement, I am obeying the law, and endeavoring to protect your interest by offering full representation, and I will work hard for you.

Downtown Newnan Georgia is a vibrant and robust business center, with shops, retaurants and services for citizen and visitor alike. It's also a great place for an afternoon or evening walk, with broad sidewalks and excellent traffic control.
One of the most interesting facets of downtown Newnan is the number of hstoric buildings still standing, Many were constructed in the 19th century, and still retain their charm and unique style. If you wish to plan a walking tour of Newnan, a map listing the merchants is available from Mainstreet Newnan. It's a great guide for getting around town, There is also plenty of free parking in the area. Even though I live in the area, I still enjoy walking the streets of Newnan, and I discover something new every time I visit. It's a piece of living history, so why not plan a visit today?  |  |  |  | Richard Weisser, Broker, Associate Broker, Auctioneer, E-Pro, CE Instructor Era United Realty, Newnan Georgia, Coweta Fayette Real Estate, Inc.

Tuesday, the 6th will be the first Tuesday in May this year. And what that means in the State of Georgia, is that on the steps of every courthouse, beginning at 10 A.M. properties in foreclosure will be offered for "sale, in cash, at public outcry to the highest bidder,"
With over a hundred foreclosures in Coweta County alone, you would think that the steps would be crowded with bargain seekers. You would be wrong. What happens in the majority of the cases, is that the lender holding the note will bid what is owed, plus the attorney's fees. And since most of these foreclosed loans were in the 95% tp 100% LTV range, and since the properties have depreciated over the last two years, the banks are generally bidding substantially over market. Add to that the potential for federal and state tax liens, and courthouse auctions are no bargains right now. Better to let the banks buy them back, and get both a better price and terms in a negotiated short-sale. But if you insist on trying, do your homework. Have your cash or certified funds on your person, as you will generally only have less than an hour to produce the money. Or, better yet, use the services of a professional full-time real estate agent, specializing in foreclosures and short-sales. This can help you avaoid all of the common pitfalls of purchasing bank-owned properties!  |  |  |  | Richard Weisser, Broker, Associate Broker, Auctioneer, E-Pro, CE Instructor Era United Realty, Newnan Georgia, Coweta Fayette Real Estate, Inc.
