Buyers SearchSo you find yourself searching for houses on the Internet. You call some agent's names off signs in front of houses. You think you are a junior real estate agent. This stuff isn't hard. Print out a few pre-printed contract forms, do your own negotiation. What could go wrong? You should know there are

    Reasons To Sign Up With A Buyers Agent.

First off they know their stuff. Do you know if you are not represented you are called a Customer? Basically with not many specific services assigned to you by ANY agent. Yet with representation, you move to the highly prized CLIENT category with a lot of "good stuff" you now get. Some reasons to use a buyers agent:

  • you get help formulating a negotiating strategy
  • the negotiating strategy is NOT revealed to the seller
  • you will be told if the current property is in violation of deed restrictions
  • you will be presented with a comparative market analysis showing you if the property is overpriced
  • the person representing you has your best interest
  • Negative features such as an inefficient floor plan will be brought to your attention
  • "Property Wanted" ads can be placed to find property for you
  • you will be informed how many Days On Market the listed property has been on the market

A Buyer's Representation Agreement is a SMART idea for any buyer to get the full and necessary services of a professional in this industry.

SIGN UP, and get the GOOD STUFF.

oh so well said. People who go out and find a home and start working with the listing agent or even negotiate on FSBO without a buyer's agent are at risk of all kinds of problems and potential financial losses.
