WHY DO YOU NEED A BUYER AGENT TO
REPRESENT YOU?
|
|
 |
A buyer
needs someone that will try to get the best value for him. Traditionally, a
subagent could only be fair to the buyer. The buyer was never told if the
house was priced well, nor was anything but material defects pointed out. |
|
 |
When a
buyer is under contract, he will receive not only better quality service,
but also the agents fiduciary belongs to the buyer, not the seller.
Subagents always work on behalf of the seller. |
|
 |
The buyer agent
will assure that the purchase agreement is written to protect your
interests. |
|
 |
A buyer's agent
will negotiate on your behalf. Traditionally, the subagent didn't do much
negotiating, as he worked for the seller. |
|
 |
A buyer agent will
assist you in choosing a lender, home inspector, attorney, and homeowners
insurance. |
|
 |
Since you will be
under contract, the buyer agent will work to find you what you want.
Subagents never know if a buyer will buy from them, so they try to sell
you on any house. |
|
 |
A buyer agent will
prepare a market study of the area in which the house you like is located.
This will enable you to make a better decision on what price to offer. |
|
 |
A buyer agent can't
racially, mentally, or physically discriminate, however, they can tell you
which areas are experiencing the greatest growth. This will help you if
you are only planning on staying in the house a short time. |
|
 |
A buyer agent will
take a more active role in the whole process, not just the sale.
