Buyer Representation |
Until very recently, real estate Agents almost always represented the Seller, not the Buyer in the real estate transaction. Even the real estate Agent who drove you from home to home or the on-site Agent at new home subdivisions were not working on your behalf. By law, the Agent was required to work on the Seller's behalf, to get the highest price and the best terms for the Seller.
ALL THAT HAS CHANGED!
Today, real estate Agents offer Buyer Representation. Just as a Seller's Agent is legally required to obtain the highest price and best terms of sale sought by the Seller, a Buyer's Agent is employed by the Buyer (although usually paid by the Seller) to obtain the lowest price and best terms of sale as desired by the Buyer they represent. Their entire job is to ensure their Buyer-Client's interests are prioritized throughout the entire transaction.
Consumer advocacy groups have endorsed and encourage such representation. Relocation companies traditionally express a strong preference for having their people represented by a Buyer's Agent when purchasing a home in a new area.
Before a Buyer enters into a conversation with a Real Estate Broker or Broker's Agent regarding a real estate transaction, the Buyer should understand what type of agency relationship or representation they have with the Broker/Agent in the transaction.
More than one million people in the US are licensed to sell real estate. Of those, fewer than three in a thousand are Accredited Buyer Representatives (A.B.R). To attain this designation, real estate practitioners must complete an extensive classroom training program on Buyer Agency practices and procedures, pass written exams and submit evidence of practical experience as a Buyer's Representative. All licensed Agents with the Epling-Mertz Team have obtained the ABR designation.
