Home Buying Considerations

Buying a home is a big investment both for your family's welfare and your financial well being. Don't just trust any real estate agent with the responsibility to help you manage those needs and gain access to the right information.  Interviewing and working with someone who is on your side and who will help you make the sound decisions is the best way to ensure a stress free and comfortable buying process. Below are lists of considerations you should review before purchasing real estate through any Realtor®.

Buyer's Network™ is one of the largest exclusive buyer agency associations of its kind, and we maintain one of the most comprehensive databases of reputable exclusive buyer agents in the country.  Our staff of agents and relocation specialists have the ability to assist you with a move anywhere in the United States. Our experts will help you find the right buyer agent, who will represent your interests. 

An exclusive buyer agent will work 100% for you assisting in evaluating your purchase options as well as locating all the available homes that meet your criteria and needs. Independent studies have proven that exclusive buyer brokers save buyers more time than any other type of real estate agent, and Buyer's Network™ agents work to secure the lowest price and best terms for your home purchase.  Please request to have one of our relocation experts confidentially provide you with more information.

Here are a few things to consider before working with an Agent to purchase your next home:

1. In most states, Realtors® traditionally represent the Seller instead of the Buyer.
2. You should specifically ask any real estate agent showing you property who they represent.  Don't assume that the real estate agent showing you property represents you unless they specifically provide you with an exclusive buyer agency agreement for you to read and sign.
3. Most states require that real estate agents provide you with a written "Agency Disclosure" for you to read and sign acknowledging who the agent represents.
4. The terms "Disclosed Dual Agent" and " Designated Agent" mean that the real estate agency does not represent your interest 100%.  Only an exclusive buyer agent having both the real estate agency and agent pledge 100% loyalty and fiduciary service to your home buying needs can represent you fully.
5. Ask any Realtors® for references prior to hiring them to represent you.  An experienced buyer agent should be able to provide you with ample satisfied references.
6. Only Buyer's Network™ exclusive buyer agents assist you in assembling a real estate Buying Team™.  You'll be amazed at how quick and easy buying real estate can be if done right.

How to Choose a Real Estate Agent
Who Will Represent You

Buyer's Network recommends that you interview the real estate agent before you start working exclusively with any agent. Ask the following questions:

1. Are you going to represent my interests or the Seller's?
2. How are your fees structures? Can I have that information in writing?
3. What geographical areas are you most knowledgeable about?
4. What experience have you had as a Buyer's Agent? Do you have any special knowledge or credentials that would benefit me (eg. first-time homebuyer programs or training as a buyer's agent)?
5. Do you have full access to the area Multiple Listing Service (MLS)?
6. Do you have access for For Sale by Owner (FSBO) and foreclosed properties?
7. How many homes are you prepared to show me?
8. Do you also list houses for sale?
9. Will you sign a guarantee that you represent my interests exclusively and not attempt to sell houses you list?
10. Do you or your firm ever represent Sellers, and if so, how can you assure complete loyalty and confidentiality to me at all times?
11. Does your firm ever practice Dual Agency or Designated Agency, and if so, doesn't representing both the Buyer and Seller present an inherent conflict of interest?
12. Will you make decisions about what homes to show me without regard to co-fees offered to cooperating agents on MLS listings?
