EXCLUSIVE BUYERS AGENTS
What They Are and Why They're Your Best Agent Choice
When you go to buy a home, would you want your agent urging you to spend more or to overlook problems in a home? Would you want your agent pushing you to select one home even though you were leaning towards another? Did you know this: Most agents have hidden agendas and are not working in your best interest 100% of the time!
There is only one exception: Exclusive Buyer's Agents.
Here's why:
* Imagine you see a house you like and you want to look through it. You call the agent listed on the sign and she agrees to show you through. That agent is legally and financially working for the seller and must try to get the highest dollar while helping you to overlook any problems with the house.
* Imagine that you're already working with an agent whose company lists homes. That agent may be good about helping you evaluate homes, but because his company lists homes, he has an economic incentive to persuade you in the direction of certain homes over other homes. So he's not necessarily looking for the home that truly fits your hopes and dreams.
* Plus, even if your agent encourages you to look into any home, that agent does not have the advantage of always working for the buyer, so he is not as experienced at finding everything about a house that would add to or take away from a home's value. He spends a lot of his time helping sellers, which can me intentionally trying not to notice flaws!
Only Exclusive Buyer's Agents are Guaranteed By Law to represent your best interests … ALWAYS.
EBAs NEVER EVER LIST HOMES. You cannot be called an Exclusive Buyer's Agent if you or your company ever lists a home. So EBAs have no reason to push you towards purchasing one home over another. Since we ONLY represent buyers, we spend all of our time evaluating the true worth of a home, looking for all the positive AND negative qualities of each home our clients are interested in.
We do our best to research:
* how the asking price compares to similar homes that have sold in the area and in the neighborhood
* how long the house has been on the market
* why the owner is selling
* anything else outside the home that may affect its value!
Exclusive Buyer's Agents can help with Home Constructions as well. You've probably heard many of the horror stories people go through when building a home. An EBA can help eliminate the horror. We'll go through builder contracts for you to look for anything unusual; we're often familiar with various builders and their reputations; we know questions to ask about the construction process to verify that you'll get a quality home; we can help you think of building options you may not even know to consider. In short, we can help you get the best quality home meeting your wants and needs within your price range. We'll help you stay on top of the builder so that things progress smoothly. We'll make sure the job is done right!
There is simply no better agent choice than an Exclusive Buyer's Agent. They cost you nothing out of pocket, with their fees being paid by the seller, just as with any agent. Their fees equal those of other agents. But they are the only ones focussing all of their experience exclusively on buyers' interests.
