Buyers often have a lot of questions when making decisions on purchasing a home, whether they are first time or repeat buyers. As Realtors we often find ourselves answering questions that fall outside our expertise because one or more of our transaction partners may be too busy take our client call or the clients feels more comfortable with their Realtor and feel as if they can ask them and get an answer they understand, often intimidated by the language and terms of transaction partner.
