Buyer Agency Exclusive Home Buying Services As a potential buyer, you have more options than ever before in the home buying process. Today, you can search for real estate online at any time of the day. Property information can be emailed to you in seconds, and virtual property tours allow you to preview homes from remote locations. While the power of these new technologies provides new search options and greater flexibility, many buyers fail to take full advantage of one of the best new developments in the real estate business: Buyer Representation or Buyer Agency. Working with a Buyer Representative today does not mean incurring additional expense during the buying process. Buyer Agents are compensated entirely by the sellers in all normal commission agreements in the local MLS. Buyers get all the benefits of representation, but pay none of the costs. Working with an experienced and knowledgeable agent during the buying process does not mean giving up your freedom nor does it limit your options. The truth is that active representation only enhances your search, providing you with expanded real-time market information and exclusive services. The agent you choose can have a great impact on your search, your negotiations, and ultimately, on the quality and value of your real estate investment. We believe informed and educated consumers make the best choices for themselves. Accordingly, we view our role as consultants - protecting the interests of our clients, rather than salespeople. In this consultant role we listen to our clients and we strive to provide the best market information and data available. We never put pressure into any decision or situation, but seek to provide the space and objectivity to assist our clients in making the "best" decision. As buyer's representatives, our job is to protect the financial interests of our clients, so we pay careful attention to property pricing, investment potential, market data, inspection items, financing details and more. Additionally, it is important that you understand how the agency relationships work throughout all aspects of the home buying process and how your rights and interests are protected. Our focus is to provide first-class buyer services to a select number of clients. We believe in the quality of our client relationships, rather than in the numbers. To provide great service, we customize a plan for working together that best meets the demands of busy schedules or special needs. Sometimes, that may mean simply providing property addresses of new listings for "drive-bys." Other times it may mean special showing arrangements and times. Whatever your property needs may be, we strive to provide top-notch service. For a complete review of our comprehensive buyer services, you can download a copy of our Total Home Buying Program. We not only want to be your Realtor, we want to be the Realtors you tell your friends about. A great deal of our business is referral-based from satisfied clients - which we consider to be a great compliment. We would appreciate the opportunity to serve you.
