Buyer's Agent; What Is A Buyer's Real Estate Agent? Chico Real Estate

Properties listed for sale with Real Estate Agents have a contractual relationship that establishes a fiduciary responsibility on behalf of the Seller. Before a Purchase Offer Agreement is created all Real Estate Agents are contractually obligated to the Seller to fulfill that fiduciary responsibility. A clear exception to this arrangement can be created through the completion of a Buyer Representative Agreement. Otherwise Buyers looking for a new home have no representation established until a purchase offer is made. Many Buyer's maybe unaware that this agreement adds NO ADDITIONAL COST to the purchase process. Buyers essentially acquire a package of additional benefits WITHOUT ADDITIONAL EXPENSE by establishing a Buyer Representative Agreementwith their Realtor.We believe these agreements represent one of the keys in the successful pursuit of home ownership.

Door to Homeownership

The Buyer's Representative Agreement produces what I refer to as the Buyer's Bundle of Benefits.

  • Fiduciary responsibility protection before a Purchase Offer Agreement is completed

  • Buyer's Loan PreQualification assistance. This is a valuable tool adding strength to your purchase when it is submitted to the Sellers.

  • Agent Screening MLS properties that fit Buyer's target market. Your Realtor has access to additional property information that is not made a part of the Public Access MLS views.

  • This also can save the Buyer considerable time and money in targeting homes that fit the Buyer's location, quality & price range criteria.

  • No Additional Buyer's Expense: The expense of the commission is built-in to the Seller's Listing Agreement

  • The agreement provides your Realtor with the assurance that their considerable time and effort, spent on your behalf will not go unrewarded.

Hopefully this information has helped to inform you of the, " Buyer's Bundle of Benefits", that are available to you with a Buyer's Representative Agreement. It is our opinion that Buyer's Agency Agreements don't cost they pay. Chico Real Estate

Not all real estate agents are Realtors. Realtors are real estate practitioners that are members of an National Association of Realtors and have sworn to a Code of Ethics and Conduct that assures Buyers and Sellers that their real estate transactions will be handled to the highest ethical standards.
