Buy With Confidence
Whether
you are a first time home buyer or an experienced real estate investor,
going it alone is often stressful, time consuming and much more
expensive than you originally thought. Some people believe that if they
buy direct from a seller, they will save the commission fees. This is
far from the truth. Buyers who chose to buy direct often miss out on
huge savings because they are unaware of information they could have
used to negotiate a far better deal.
Why to Buy with a Buyers’ Agent
Unlike the seller’s agent, a Buyers’ Agent represents you, the buyer. He
or she will put your best interests first, and will work diligently to
get you the best deal. He or she has the field knowledge, experience and
critical intelligence gathering tools to assist you.
An accredited buyers’ representative (ABR) is an expert in buyer
representation and the home buying process. Elad Bushari successfully
represented more than 9 million dollars worth of properties this year
alone.
Your buyers’ agent knows the market inside and out. We track the market
and write the quarterly Boston Real Estate Market Report. Understanding
the local market is key when negotiating for the best price and terms.
The seller pays the agent’s commission. Many buyers mistakenly believe
that if they buy directly from the seller or seller’s agent, he or she
will save on the commission. That is simply not true. The seller will
pay the same commission to his agent, regardless if you have an agent or
not. Your buyers’ agent will negotiate a better price and terms on your
behalf. You will end up saving more than you could imagine, in areas you
didn’t know existed.
Your buyers’ agent tracks the seller’s pricing method and motivation. By
understanding these two major negotiation components, you will add
strength to your negotiation plan and complete a more favorable deal.
Having a third party negotiate on your behalf is the first rule of
innovative negotiation techniques. If you negotiation for yourself, you
may face situations where you must give immediate responses to questions
you would rather sleep on. A third party negotiator buys you time to
think and analyze the situation in a non-stress environment.
Your buyers’ agent will protect you legally throughout the process. He
or she knows the local real estate laws and will assist you with all
necessary legal paperwork such as the offer to purchase and the purchase
and sale agreement. He or she will also refer you to top local mortgage
agents and attorneys.
