This is a MUST READ
topic for all buyers. People with many experiences as buyers of real estate
have been surprised by what they learn.
Buyer Agency is the
highest level of representation offered to a Buyer by a real estate
professional. A Buyer Agent is required to represent your interests, as
long as those interests are legal. The Listing Agents represent the Seller of a
property. In negotiating price and terms, the Seller’s Agent represents their
interests. Unless you have entered into a Buyer Agency Agreement
with your Agent, your interests may not be represented. Georgia
Law prohibits a Broker from representing a Buyer as a client without first
entering into a written Agreement with that Buyer. Georgia
law requires a written and signed Buyer Agency Agreement for an Agent to
represent you.
By entering into a Buyer Agency
relationship with your Agent, you will be given a higher level of service. Your
Buyer Agent will analyze information such as comparative market data, advise
you on negotiating and wording the Purchase and Sale Agreement, and, in
general, act as your advocate in the purchase process.
In about 99% of all residential
real estate transactions, the Seller pays all commissions and the Buyer
receives the full benefit of professional representation. Your Buyer’s Agent
will address the possible cost and any other questions you may have at the time
you are presented the Buyer Agency Agreement. In the Agreement, you consent to
handle all real estate inquiries, questions, information requests,
showing and concerns through your Buyer’s Agent. In return, you will have a
much less stressful home buying experience!
If you decline Buyer Agency, you
will not have a representative to look out for your best interests. In
fact, your Agent may be required by law to represent the interests of
the Seller. For the most part, Buyers without a Buyer Agent simply have not
been informed that they have the right to be represented. As the Buyer, you make
the decision whether to be represented or not.
