Real Estate Buyers - Your Own Agent Free

Real estate buyers are hurting themselves and they don't even know why. It seems that most buyers think:
• If they find property to buy on their own they will get a better deal.
• If they contact multiple real estate agents and have them look for the same type of property in the same area they will have a better selection.
• All real estate agents are working for the property seller.
• They will have to pay to have a real estate agent work with them to find property to buy.
• If they withhold the truth or simply lie when requesting real estate information they are in control and become experts without obligation.
• Buying a For Sale By Owner (FSBO) property without any real estate agents involved is like finding a pot of gold.

Anyone planning to buy real estate in South Carolina or North Carolina should know that the six items listed above are wrong.

The days of thinking of “real estate agents” in the same category as “dishonest used car dealers” is coming to an end but there is still a big difference between a Realtor® and someone who sells real estate. Separating facts from a perception may help real estate buyers actually gain control, save time, and save money.

A buyer who wants control and the best advantage during a purchase will need to find a “Buyer's Agent” who is also a “Realtor®” because in addition to extensive training and testing they have taken an Oath that includes “honesty” and “ethics” when working with a buyer or seller. Before you commit to that Realtor they should answer “yes” to the question; “If I agree to let you be my Buyers Agent will you show me properties listed with other real estate companies and if I find a property of interest will you provide true comparable (comps or CMA) information if available?” Review the Buyer's Agency Agreement which assigns that Realtor to be your Agent and goes into more detail regarding their responsibilities. If a buyer wants to cancel the Agreement it can easily be done if they have a valid reason. Never have more than one Agent at the same time because if you buy a property there is a possibility legal actions will be taken that may delay or prevent the purchase.

I only know about real estate consumer protection in South Carolina and North Carolina but I am sure many other states have the same type of laws. |
