I'm getting lots of questions about 'do I still need an agent to represent me when I buy a home?' YES. YES. YES.  Maybe more now than ever!  Why??? Red below...

Market Knowledge: Real estate agents have access to comprehensive market data, including recent sales, current listings, and trends. This knowledge allows them to advise you on pricing, negotiation strategies, and market conditions.

Negotiation Skills: Negotiating the terms of a real estate transaction can be complex and emotional. Agents are trained negotiators who can advocate for your interests and navigate the negotiation process effectively.

Legal Protection: Real estate transactions involve a significant amount of legal paperwork and contracts. A skilled agent can ensure that all documents are completed accurately and in compliance with relevant regulations, reducing the risk of legal issues down the line.

Access to 'off market' listings: Real estate agents have access to a wide range of listings through Multiple Listing Services (MLS) and other networks, but an experienced agent that has deep rooted relationships in the market often can offer some properties that no one else knows are available.  This access allows them to find properties that meet your criteria, arrange viewings efficiently and gain an advantage on the rest of the buyer pool.
