Do I need a real estate agent?

Did you know that a typical real estate transaction includes upwards of two dozen individuals? From mortgage brokers, appraisers, escrow officers, the buyer’s agent, the seller’s agent, and many people in-between, buying a home requires all individuals involved to be well orchestrated in order to get a home purchase to closing. The real estate agent is in charge of this orchestration and it is their responsibility to coordinate and advocate in your best interest. 

Your real estate agent is responsible for: 

• Educating you about the market

• Listening to your wants and needs 

• Guiding you to homes that fit your wants and needs 

• Coordinates the work of other professionals required

• Negotiates on your behalf

• Checks and double-checks paperwork and deadlines

• Solves problems if they arise
