Top 8 Reasons to Choose an Exclusive Buyer Agent

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with True Sarasota Real Estate


Buying a Home

Here are our top 8 reasons to choose an Exclusive Buyer Agent to represent your interests when buying a home or real estate investment.

1. EBAs, who work solely for buyers, are 100% loyal to you from the onset of the relationship through the closing.

2. EBAs, who represent only 1% of all real estate firms nationwide, are true specialists in the buying process.

3. EBAs, who never work with sellers, never have a conflict of interest between you and a seller. 

4. EBAs, who never accept listings, will show you any listing from any seller with complete candor - including For Sale by Owner, REO / bank-owned / foreclosures, and short sales. 

5. EBAs, who are constantly reviewing all the real estate listings available (from companies, individuals and organizations) know the real estate market better than most.

6. EBAs, who assist buyers in property appraisals, can be completely candid about any property, making it their job to point out negatives as well as positives to help you make a fully informed decision.

7. EBAs, who only represent the buyer's side in real estate transactions, are especially trained and skilled in negotiating the best contract, terms and price for you.

8. Perhaps most importantly, EBAs give today's home buying consumers the high quality of service, advocacy, and information that you truly deserve.

Wiliam,

            I had never heard of Exclusive Buyers Agent interesting concept. I wonder how other realtors will react to it. I am a builder's rep therefore I do not have to hold a license here in Texas. I have hit the suggest button as well.

Well said. I think we can all do a better job of getting these points out to the public. I always tell my clients that dual agency is like arm wrestling. I can't arm wrestle myself. Try it, you have to pick a winner. I always know who I represent.
