Choose your Buyer's Agent Carefully!
Before you start looking at homes, select an experienced buyer’s agent to represent you. A buyer’s agent is a licensed real estate advisor committed to representing your interests.
Purchasing real estate can be very costly, complex, time consuming, risky and emotional. There are so many “what if” scenarios that can happen. Every transaction is different, but having someone coach you can potentially save you thousands. More importantly, you will have more information and advice to make better informed decisions.
Keep in mind, once you have seen a house with one agent, it’s usually too late to get another agent to represent you. That means you’re stuck buying the home from an agent that you didn’t get to choose, which can be uncomfortable depending on their personality, trust level, etc. That agent will also be representing the seller, in lieu of an experienced advocate for you. In these situations, the seller’s agent usually gets paid additional commission that would have paid your buyer’s agent to represent you. A buyer’s agent typically doesn’t cost out of pocket expenses, only in rare situations.
