If you were a major league baseball star, would you negotiate your own contracts? Most people in that position would hire a team of professionals to help them earn the most for their talents and that team is not cheap.
What if you could have a team of professionals working for you, at no cost to yourself?
You can by interviewing and selecting a Realtor to work with when you hunt for a home.
Most buyer agents provide their service free of charge to the buyer. Buyer's representation is a cost that is already factored into the sales price when the seller lists their home with an agent.
I've heard some people say, "I can get a better deal if I don't use an agent, because the seller won't have to pay the buyers agent fee...". What these people don't understand is that they are getting the worst deal of all. Not only are they choosing to walk into a high stakes financial deal without professional representation on their side, they are doubling the pay of the professional who is negotiating for the seller.
So when the time comes to look for a home, remember to take advantage of something you'll already be paying for and find a real estate professional knowledgeable about your area.

Great blog on buyer's representation. Many times the idea of a team of professionals working for a buyer goes unnoticed. It is only after the buyer has gone through purchasing a home that they gain a fuller appreciation of how we incorporate the professional advice of lenders, attorneys, our broker and sales manager, as well as our own expertise in meeting their real estate needs.
