You can be the most tech-savvy person in the world, but without knowledge of the local market, experience negotiating offers, a reliable home inspector, and connections in the financing world, ultimately you could be losing money on your new investment.
Enlisting a buyer’s agent ensures that someone is fighting for your best interests. While it’s easy to think that whomever you’ve found to show you through a potential home would not lead you astray, the truth is that until a buyer’s agency agreement is signed, that agent may be holding out on you.
If you decide to go without a buyer’s agent, not only might you have to pay a lawyer to draft contracts, but you’ll also have to find a licensed agent to attend the home inspection and appraisal. The home’s listing agent might be willing to do this to ensure the transaction goes smoothly — or they may ask for a portion of the price that would’ve been allotted to your agent.
Keep these points in mind before turning to your smartphone for your next home. Consider a buyer’s agent to do the legwork for you, and enjoy how easy the process of buying a home can be.
