Finding the right home for you
We do not list properties and
don't have to push our own listings |
Are obligated to represent their Seller Clients. Must present the
homes they have listed first, then and only then, any others. |
Represents the Buyer
Help you find the best home for
the lowest price
and best terms
possible |
Represents the Seller: First
and foremost, must get the best Buyer they can for their listed properties to
pay the
highest price possible. |
Will provide as much information possible
We will provide comparable sales, tell
you what we think the information means and what price we feel the market
will bear regarding any property you ask us about. |
It
can be a conflict of interest for other companies to provide buyer
customers, selective comparative data if in conflict with
getting the highest price
for their seller clients. Click here to help
understand the difference between a "client" and a "customer". |
Will help you formulate an offering price
Which will reflect an opinion of the
current market value of the home you wish to offer for. The offering price is your
choice, not the Seller's or Seller's broker or agent. |
Agents
working for Sellers cannot advise the Buyer to offer any different price other than
the asking price. If they do, they could possibly be in breach of
contract with their Seller clients for whom they are obligated to
get the
highest price. |
Commission can be structured to
motivate for
getting
the lowest price
The more you pay, the less we make. |
Motivated to
get the highest price
Usually, the more you pay, the more they make. |
We help you
purchase a house,
we don't sell you anything
We will never ask you to make an offer
on a property...you are in control. We help you in preparation of an offer,
only when you are ready. |
Are typically trained to
"sell"
you a house. They are usually sales people obligated to
sell houses they have listed for the highest price possible. |
WE NEVER PRACTICE DUAL AGENCY
It is our opinion that it is contrary to any
principal's interest to attempt representing both sides in a
transaction. |
Most agents prefer dual agency because they make more
money. |
We have access to
most any property for sale, including MLS properties, FSBO, REO, REPO and others.
