Buying a home is unlike any other purchase. Before you assume you can do this on your own, consider why it may be smarter to work with an Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR®).
Oh, and by the way... I have taken the time to become certified as an ABR.
Here is why you should work with an ABR - aka ME!
1. A skilled professional will be covering your back.
In real estate transactions, having representation (either as a buyer or seller) means that an industry professional is obligated to protect and promote your interests, including keeping certain information confidential and sharing information with you that might benefit your position. Without buyer representation, you could find yourself working with an agent whose loyalty is aligned with the seller! I have gone a step further, completing specialized training in the best practices for buyer representation.
2. You’ll simplify many complex aspects of your transaction.
Let’s face it. If you aren’t already familiar with complex real estate contracts, disclosure forms, and mortgage applications, these documents can be confusing and daunting. Most buyers genuinely appreciate having a knowledgeable resource (me) to answer your questions.
3. You’ll be working with an up-to-date expert.
I have completed special coursework and passed a certification test in buyer representation, which means I have a keen understanding of my duties and obligations, as well as an appreciation for your concerns. Further, I am committed to maintaining a professional edge by staying current on the latest issues and trends in buyer representation.
4. You’ll know your buyer representative has proven experience.
One qualification of earning the ABR® designation is proof of completed transactions with other homebuyers. It’s impossible for an inexperienced real estate agent to obtain the ABR® designation. I work hard for my clients and I will work hard for you!
5. You can improve your negotiating results.
Deciding on an offer price for a house is tricky business, requiring careful analysis of other comparable homes for sale, recently sold homes, and other market factors. Plus, your offer price is just one facet of your negotiating strategy. I can advise you on every negotiating detail, including counseling you on the pluses and minuses of various contingencies. I can also present your offer to the sellers in the best possible light and help navigate counter-offers, improving your chances of getting the results you want.
6. You can get a higher level of service without paying more.
In the vast majority of circumstances, listing agreements are structured so that a buyer’s agent’s commission is paid out of the seller’s proceeds. I am ready to help you!
7. It's me!
You are already on my website checking things out. I know my stuff and I love my clients. Don't hesitate to reach out so I can help get you in the home of your dreams.
