What is advocacy?
What is a Buyers Agent?
Buyers Agents are licensed professionals that specialise in searching, locating, evaluating and negotiating the purchase of property on behalf of the buyer. They do not sell real estate. The key difference between a Buyers Agent and a traditional sales agent is who they represent. A Buyers Agent works exclusively for the buyer unlike the sales agent who works for the vendor (the seller).
Many buyers mistakenly believe that the selling agent is also looking after their best interests. This agent cannot, by law, look after the seller and the buyer. The selling agent is paid by the vendor to achieve the highest possible price for their property. They are unable to look after the interests of the buyer and achieve the maximum price at the same time.
A BuyersAgent on the other hand is trying to achieve the best possible outcome for the buyer. In other words this agent is looking exclusively after the interests of the buyer.
“We level the playing field.”
Using a Buyers Agent is becoming more widespread throughout Australia as investors and home buyers experience the advantages they provide. A Buyers Agent can provide you with all the knowledge you need to make an informed decision about a property without all the usual sales “hype”.
What is a Vendor Advocate?
