Buyer Success
Using a good buyer's agent is the difference between a cumbersome and smooth home buying experience. A buyer's agent will usually not cost you anything since the seller pays the commission to the listing agent who then splits it with the buyer's agent. If you choose not to have a buyer's agent represent you, the seller agent will then serve you as a customer and have no obligation to represent your interests whereas buyer's agent has a legal duty to work for your interests.
Look for a buyer's agent who will be your partner. Find someone you trust, who will give you the facts, help you make intelligent, well-informed decisions and work with you throughout the entire process.
