If you're considering buying a home, here's an important fact to keep in mind: relying on the listing agent might not actually save you any money.
A study conducted by the National Association of Realtors (NAR) found that buyers who used a buyer's agent paid, on average, 5% less than those who worked directly with the listing agent.
Choosing the listing agent as a buyer can come with drawbacks like limited representation, negotiation challenges, and potential overpayment.
Instead, consider the advantages of a buyer's agent: unbiased representation, negotiation expertise, access to exclusive listings, and guidance throughout the process.
So, don't fall for the misconception — consider hiring a buyer’s agents to help secure the best deal on your next property.
