Buyer's Guide

The most significant advantage hiring a buyer’s agent comes with is providing you access to the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), which features the most accurate information on current houses for sales. The MLS is the system listing agents use to promote their client’s properties, providing immediate access to homes you probably won’t find listed elsewhere online until days after the fact (if they’re not snapped up already). 

There are other websites you can use to search the market, but most aren’t updated to the minute like the MLS and sometimes show inaccurate information. Houses sell fast in this day and age. Our agents are educated on the market information and regularly analyze recent comparable sales to ascertain the best offer for negotiations.

It’s fun to shop for a new home, but there is more involved than you might expect. You want to be aware of certain red flags, such as leaks, roofing issues, structural problems, mold, etc. You might think you can recognize a problem area, but we are trained to find potential issues quickly. From there, we can refer you to a proper professional. This buyer's guide is a great resource to get you started but there is so much more can learn to feel confident in your decision.

Your buyer’s agent will coordinate showings when you find the house you’re most interested in purchasing. Depending on how many properties you’re looking at, it can quickly become daunting to try and schedule a walkthrough for each one. A buyer’s agent has the connections to coordinate multiple showings in various locations, so you don’t have to worry about it.
