Do You Have a Personal Real Estate Agent?
If you’re planning on buying a home, you may have already shopped around on your own. Perhaps you’ve attended a few open houses or called the number on a For Sale sign to schedule a private viewing of that property.
You can do that on your own if you have the time and expertise. However, statistics prove that you’ll be more successful in finding your dream home at the right price with a personal real estate agent working on your behalf.
Your Real Estate Agent Works for You
A real estate agent, especially someone like me who knows the local market well, will help you find and buy your ideal home quickly and make the entire process go smoothly for you. During a viewing, your real estate agent will give you the inside scoop on that property, so you know the full story about the property. Your agent will also point out desirable features and potential issues you might otherwise miss.
When it is time to make an offer, your real estate agent will present and negotiate it on your behalf. If you don’t have your own real estate agent, you would have to deal directly with the seller’s agent, who is legally obliged to work in the seller’s best interests, not yours.The bottom line: Your own personal real estate agent is there for you, every step of the way. That is my promise and guarantee to you if you select me as your agent.
