Why Hire an EXCLUSIVE Buyer Agent

By
Real Estate Agent with Optima Properties BK 496540

 

n exclusive buyer’s agent (EBA)is hired to help you with a big monetary decision, which is also a big personal decision. There is a wide variety in the quality of that fiduciary (financial) advice you will get, depending on the agent you choose.

An EBA is required to help their client get the best price and the best terms for the property that they want to buy. They are bound to help protect their client’s financial interests throughout the buying process.

How does buyer brokerage work? 

The company – traditional offices:

An agent who works with a buyer — and has a contract to give that buyer representation — is a buyer’s agent. The vast majority of buyer’s agents work in companies alongside other agents who represent sellers. In those companies, most work with both buyers and sellers. Whenever a buyer puts in an offer for a house listed by that company, the head of that office is a dual agent. Both agents want the highest price for the Seller ...they are sub-agents of the Seller.

A good post and a new acronym that may get used often, EBA.  To paraphrase a slogan that our statewide MLS is using to promote agents:   It's not a buyer's agent. or a seller's agent but a your agent.
