First Time Home Buyers - Shop for your Agent First!!

Jerry I think hiring an agent first is a smart idea since the real estate agent the key member of the homebuying team that helps pull everything together.  No other member of the homebuying team has the level of involvement as the agent.

Saying a big SUGGESTED here!  The entire home buying process will go smoother, easier and be fun when using a good Realtor® before you even begin your home search!

Jerry: Picking the wrong agent can be detrimental to consumers' pocketbooks now and later...your tips are right on the mark.  Suggested.

Great news for you!  Picking an un-knowledgeable agent can be big trouble for the entire deal team.  I know, I have been part of that distasteful scenario before.

First-time homebuyers are our favorite type of clients, because it's an area where our expertise and knowledge becomes extremely useful and our presence in the process can make a huge difference. Plus we get to experience vicariously again that thrill of buying your first home.

Jerry - all great advice for first time buyers and seasoned buyers. Having the right agent is the smartest thing you can do when buying and for anyone in San Antonio, you are the expert Realtor to call!

Oh so suggested Jerry!  It is very important that those seeking to buy their first or 10th home seek out the advice of an agent before embarking on that journey.  Many walk into an open house or a new builder and think that they are getting the best representation when they really aren't getting any at all. 

You first home presentation will probably answer many questions that buyers didn't even know they had :)!

Jerry,  If only we could inject this very sound advice into the DNA of all home buyers ... they simply don't know what they don't know.  Hiring a professional saves time, money and a lot of frustration.  <<suggested>>

Jerry,  Buying a home is the largest investment people ever make.  They should certainly seek the help of a professional.  The ones who try to do it without representation baffle my mind.  Providing useful information to thos first time home buyers is crucial. 

Jerry, there is a saying that "a man of experience will never be held captive by a man of theory." No matter how much anyone has read about buying a home on the internet or in a book, working with an experienced agent will make a difference and possibly a huge difference. Yesterday, I looked at a home with huge damage - the neighbors said the seller tried to get the builder to fix it (it had been new construction) but they would not. My first thought was, "I bet they did not have a Realtor representing them."
