Mary Hannon, Accredited Buyer Representative

You're already paying for a real estate agent when you buy a home... so why don't you have your own representation? Did you know that there is (typically) a commission offered to the buyer agent through the contract that a Real Estate Agent has with their seller?- That's right and guess who is paying for it? -That's right- you are! After all, aren't you bringing the money to the "table". Why wouldn't you want someone on your side?
A Good Buyer's Agent is certified with the National Association of Realtors (ABR or CBR designations). They should have good experience and truly know the community you are intested in. Finding the property you are interested in is the smallest part of the job for a buyer's agent. That's when we really go to work. Researching the value, the property, and negotiating on your behalf is the job that is most important. You want to make sure that the agent has the resources, the knowledge and the reputation in the community to work in your best interest. Interview your potential real estate agent. Don't just show up at the first property you find on the internet. For a series of questions you should ask...contact me and I'll send you a list of questions I would want to ask my real estate agent...
Let me do the work so you can relax and start packing.
