Why Use A REALTOR® For Buyer

The majority of Sellers will be using a REALTOR®. Most sellers will have an expert representing them to ensure their interests are protected.

If you are trying to negotiate with a Seller in this position, you will be at an unfair disadvantage.

Get yourself a REALTOR® to ensure your interests are being protected.

As a Buyer, you will be receiving FREE representation.

In most instances, the Seller will be paying the real estate service fees for your REALTOR®. It is common practice in BC for the Seller to pay both sides of the commission.

This means by hiring a REALTOR® you will be getting professional representation for free!

Buying real estate is one of the biggest financial transactions you will make in your life.

Real estate transactions typically exceed $250,000. If you had a $250,000 law suit or audit on your hands, would you attempt to handle it without the expert help of a lawyer or an accountant?

Probably not.  Likewise, it would be foolish to consider a deal in real estate without the professional assistance of a REALTOR®.

A REALTOR® working as a buyer’s agent works to find the connection between homes available on the market and the needs and financial capacity of buyers.

Be comfortable and confident with the REALTOR® you are selecting as your business partner.

As your agent, your REALTOR® owes you the duties of utmost care, integrity, confidentiality and loyalty.
