Free+Quality+Value=Buyer Agent
Your first response is likely to be “never.” Even today, this question has a positive answer when it comes to buying a home. Home buyer agents are free: plain and simple. The agent get’s paid from the seller’s profits for compensation of his/her efforts. This is a common fact with all buyer agents and it is in a home buyer’s best interest to take advantage of this free service. An agent knows the process, understands what to do when problems arise, if they arise, and are able to make the whole home buying process a lot smoother.
Your next question might be, “What kind of value or quality does this free service get me?” This is a great question, and a good reason to do your homework before choosing an agent. You first have to know what a quality agent is to know what a bad agent looks like. Phil Sharp is a great example of a quality agent for several reasons.
