When buying a house please keep these 3 points in mind!

1️⃣ You need an agreement with your buyer agent, but it doesn’t have to be exclusive or long-term. Negotiate the terms and shop for an agent you trust *before* shopping for a home. You may have to interview a few before you find the right fit. This is worth the time and effort.

2️⃣ Commission is negotiable, and now it’s written into the forms. Even though MLS doesn’t disclose the buyer agency compensation, it can still be negotiated in your sales contract. This is true even if the seller isn't proactively offering compensation.

3️⃣ Don’t forgo representation just to avoid fees—it could cost you in the long run. Skillful buyer agents know your market and can not only negotiate a deal for you that makes sense, vut also help with due diligence tasks that may keep you from making costly errors in your transaction

Please don't shoot the messenger, we are just doing our job. How do you feel about this when you’re looking at buying a home??

PSA TO ALL HOME BUYERS: On August 17th a Realtor CAN NOT show you a home unless you have signed agreement with them. (Unless you request a showing through the listing agent.) Usually it’s not a problem and we can zip over, show it to you and be done, however, starting August 17th no Realtor will be able to unlock a door for you without you first signing that agreement. This will be non negotiable for any person with a Realtor designation. The usual form between buyer and Realtor is a Buyers Representation Agreement (however any written agreement to show a property will suffice. It doesn’t have to be a buyers rep. A buyers rep (if that’s what you sign) is basically your contract between you and that realtor saying you will be using them to buy a home and breaking down the roles, duties and responsibilities owed to you by your agent etc. This is not something we want to do, but are being required to do.

Picking the agent you want to use to help you buy a home is an important decision and not one that should be forced upon you just to see a home. The good news is that we get to decide when it expires, so although you may have to sign one, if you’re not ready yet to fully commit to a Realtor, you can always request an agreement that expires in a day, a week, a month, etc.. lastly, please don’t yell at your local realtors if they want you to sign something before showing you a home.

🚨 Contrary to popular belief, you don't need to wait until you've saved 20% for a down payment to achieve your dream of homeownership.

💡 Friendly Reminder: You don't need 20% down to buy a house! 🏡

Did you know that different loan programs offer various down payment requirements? From conventional loans to FHA and VA loans, there are options available that may require as little as 3% or even 0% (VA) down.

As an experienced real estate advisor, I'm here to debunk this misconception and support you every step of the way.

Whether you're a first-time buyer or exploring your options, know that affordable homeownership is within reach.

Ready to explore your options and start your journey to homeownership? Drop me a line.
