Benefits of a Buyer's Agent - A
buyer's agent will represent you with any home on the market, whether listed by
another broker, for sale by owner, in foreclosure, or in government resale
process.
A seller's agent is obligated to obtain the
best price for the seller.
A buyer's agent will keep your best
interests and needs foremost during the transactions. A buyer's agent will
maintain confidentiality of the buyer's price intentions and personal
motives.
Only a buyer's agent will independently
provide an unbiased analysis of property strengths and weaknesses, as well as
information that the sellers would actually like to keep quiet. This might
include a seller's imminent job transfer, divorce, days on the market, or other
offers. Anything that the seller, seller's agent, or records share that gives
the buyer leverage.
When you call on an advertisement in a
newspaper or a Homes For Sale magazine, you are most likely calling the listing
agent. They represent the Seller, not you, the buyer.
Using a Buyer's Agent for "New Homes
- Unlike the builder's on-site sales agent, who can only discuss the product he
or she is selling, a buyer's agent will point out the pros and cons of many
builders and communities. Moreover, the buyer agent's services are usually
FREE--in most cases the builder pays the agent a sales commission, even though
the buyer agent's loyalties are with the buyer and not the seller. But there is
a caveat here. All tract home builders stipulate that a buyer's agent must
accompany you the very first time you visit a model and sign a visitor card in
order to receive a sales commission. If you like to go off on the spur of the
moment and cruise models, you will not be able to have your own
representation.
I keep tabs on all the new communities in my
area and can readily match your criteria with the appropriate ones within your
price range. A major advantage of using a buyer's agent is a much more
efficient housing search. Rather than spend several weekends just getting a
sense of what's out there, you can quickly narrow the field in only one or two
hours. And best of all, my services are FREE!!!
Find Your Own Realtor! - Although
buyers can learn a lot by checking the new home websites on the Internet,
especially if they are relocating to another part of the country, keep in mind
that many homes featured on the web have already been sold. Don't waste your
valuable time! Work with a Buyer's Agent who knows the market.
Protect yourself and your rights as a Buyer.
Call your Realtor when you see an ad. He or she will call the listing agent to
inquire about the property. It may be the perfect home for you, but let YOUR
Realtor do the investigating in order to get the most accurate information and
not waste your valuable time.
How to Find a Realtor - On the Web,
you are able to anonymously judge Realtors by content of their Web Sites and
their qualifications. You want a Realtor who knows the area in detail and that
has probably already previewed many of the homes for sale in that community.
That should be of utmost importance, because you will be relying on their
expertise in all matters relating to that community. Any Realtor can show you
every property available for sale in the MLS. But, do they have the experience
and the necessary tools to really be of service and to assist you?
Do they respond in a timely manner to your
calls and emails?
Is it a personal response or a "canned"
autoresponder?
Do they provide information to help move in
a forward direction?
What do I require from you for this very
specialized service?
- An agreement to work with me on an
exclusive basis.
- Pre-approval for financing (provided at
no cost to you)

Disclosure Laws >Disclaimer Clauses
Before the professional inspects the home that you are buying, you will be asked to sign an acknowledgment of the scope of the inspection. This document will probably include a disclaimer clause designed to relieve the company of responsibility if they should miss a defect. What happens if a defect is missed during an inspection?
The disclaimer clause may get the inspection company off the hook for a defect if there is no visual indication of a problem. If the inspector clearly indicated that he was not checking for that problem--many inspectors do not check for dry rot or inspect roofs--then the recourse will be limited. If negligence is involved, or if the defect should have been obvious to a professional inspector, the disclaimer is not likely to protect the inspector. If you find an undiscovered defect, discuss the matter with the inspector. Depending on the situation, the responsibility for remedying the problem may rest with you, the sellers, and/or the inspector.
