BUYER REPRESENTATION FACTS:

In Pennsylvania, you have the right to full representation when purchasing real estate. Contact us for more information on Buyer's Agency Programs in Pennsylvania.

RIGHT OF EQUAL REPRESENTATION
Purchasing a property without your own real estate agent may not be in your best interest. You provide the money for closing the transaction. It is quite likely your largest financial transaction. Therefore, you may want to have an expert working for you.

RIGHT OF PREMIUM SERVICE

  • Exclusive representation
  • Confidentiality concerning your money and motivations
  • Complete loyalty without conflicts
  • Unbiased showing of all available homes, including those offered for sale by owners
  • Information and advice on weaknesses and strengths of a property
  • Market analysis of area to determine the true property value
  • Disclosure of everything known or that can be discovered by your agent
  • Negotiating to obtain the best price and terms
  • Hassle-free relocation
  • No unpleasant surprises at closing
RIGHT OF FULL DISCLOSURE
If you do not contract with a buyer agent, then that agent is working for themselves as a transaction broker or for the seller as a seller's agent, not for you. You are that agent's customer, not his client. You deserve an agent who will do everything to elevate your negotiating position over that of the seller.

RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF CHOICE
You have the right to choose. If the agent is not working for you as a buyer's agent, they cannot:

  • Help you determine that a property is overpriced
  • Give you advice about offering less than the asking price
  • Reveal the seller's motives.

A seller's agent must treat you fairly and can't misrepresent any aspects of a property, but he must try to get the most money and best terms for the seller. He must, by law, tell the seller everything he has been able to find out about you.

A transaction broker is no one's agent and will only handle the paperwork. He can't give you advice or direction of any kind that might favor your position over the seller's.
