Why You Need An Agent When Buying Your Home

Have you ever been out looking for your new home and thought to yourself "I don't need an agent. I'm going to do this on my own and save some money." Well...I am here with some enlightening news for you. You don't save any more money when buying a home if you use a realtor to help you, than if you did it on your own. In fact, you are more likely to save more money with a Realtor when buying a home. I'll give you an example of why this is. You know how you can buy plane tickets and hotel rooms online straight from the their website? Well, there are also websites out there that give you discounted plane tickets and hotel rooms. These discounted websites are there to bargain a deal for you and also to do wide spread advertising of the hotels and airlines. So because these discounted sites advertise and get more business for the companies than they were getting on their own, the hotels and airlines then pay these discount sites for their services. Now you can always just call straight to the hotel and airlines and get the price they quoted you, which leaves little to no room for negotiations. Well, that is kind of what your buying agent does for you. We will show you more properties than you can see on your own. We can get you into homes on days there is no open house and give you useful information about the home and the area. We will also give you comparables to that property and help you to weigh the pros and cons of one property v.s. another. And when you find the home you are looking for, our big job is to negotiate a lower price for you. The agent who sells the home has the job of getting the highest price for their client and that client is the one who pays the commission to have their Realtor advertise, market, and promote the sale of their home to other Realtors. So, do you want to walk into a situation of trying to buy a home with no help, no professional guidance, and nobody to stand in your corner and negotiate for you, all at the low low price of...nothing-more-out-of-your-pocket? I think it's time you started looking someone to work for you...you deserve it!
