buyer’s agent? True to the name, buyer’s agents assist home buyers every step of the way; they can also save you both time and money on the road to homeownership. When you find the right one for you, these real estate agents will work day and night to ensure all your needs and requirements are met when it comes to finding the right home.
WHAT BUYER'S AGENTS DO FOR YOU
Your buyer’s agent will have a vast knowledge of the area's current real estate market, including neighborhood amenities and conditions, the law, zoning issues, price trends, negotiations, taxes, financing, and insurance. Once you meet with the buyer’s agent, they’ll help you determine your needs and wants when finding a home and a neighborhood. The agent will teach you what you can afford, help you set a budget, provide some insight into the current conditions of the market, and explain what you should expect while shopping for a home. During the shopping period, you’ll meet with your agent for tours of homes you might be interested in. They will give you insight into the floor plans, the home’s pertinent selling points, and the overall crime rate of that neighborhood. They will also give you a rundown of local activities, restaurants, shopping centers, and schools nearby. Your agent is responsible for ensuring home inspections and the disclosures therein are complete. They’re also in charge of ensuring coordination and completion through the roof inspector, attorneys, lenders, and all other professionals involved with the home purchase.
