Buyers Agent
Why use a Buyers Agent?
What is a buyers agent? Do you really
need to use one? How concerned with your interests are they really? Are
they just out to get the commission? These  are some questions you may have about having a
Moses
Lake buyers agent on your side. We hope this article will help
clear up some misconceptions of a buyers
agent.
This is technically a buyers market right now where there are an abundance of homes
on the market and not enough buyers
to purchase them. Meaning the buyers really
have the upper hand when it comes to finding a home and negotiating.
So many sellers have
given their homes over to the bank or are in the process of a foreclosure
and they are wanting to sell the home
for just about whatever they can get for it. This is a great position for buyers
to be in. Right now, buyers
can find a great deal on Moses Lake real estate and
get a lot of inspection issues taken care of from the seller.
But how do you go about finding a home in Soap Lake, Ephrata
or Moses Lake and carrying out a purchase and sale contract? The best
way to do this is to hire the help of a buyers agent.
When a seller
lists their Moses
Lake property with an agent, that agent is
considered to be the listing agent. Typically another agent,
representing the buyer, would be
called the buyers agent OR selling agent as they facilitated the sale of the
property.
A seller typically agrees to a percentage of the profits on the
house to go towards the agents
responsible for facilitating the transaction. This fee is negotiable and is
usually determined at the time of the listing contract. The
commission is then split between the agent listing the home and the agent selling the home.
If the same agent does both jobs its is considered dual agency and thus the
agent receives all the commission. It is a really good idea to enlist the help
of a buyers
agent to support you in the transaction when you buy a home.
The main reason to use a buyers agent:
It Costs You NOTHING! That's right. If you are a buyer and you
enlist the help of a professional Moses Lake real estate agent
to assist in the entire transaction, you pay nothing to the agent for their
services. The seller of whatever home you buy pays the agent that finds the
buyer their half of the commission.
Using a buyers agent means our agents are working solely for you
the buyer,
not the seller. We have your best interest at heart and work only for you.
It doesn't matter which home you buy as our agents will receive a
commission for any home you buy. Our dedicated Moses Lake
agents are more concerned about finding the home you are really looking
for and making sure the entire transaction is clear and concise and followed out
with honestly and professionalism.
There is really no reason not to use a buyers
agent. As the buyer, you benefit greatly from the expertise and
knowledge of someone that knows the market and knows the details of a
transaction and you have someone on your side when it comes to negotiating and
contracts.
