Buying Property

Do you know that using a Real Estate Agent to help you find a home does not cost you anything?

When a Real Estate Agent lists a home, they put down a percentage commission (example: 6%). That commission is to be paid by the Seller to the Agent or Agents who sell their home. If the Listing Agent is the only Agent in the transaction, and you the Buyer don't have an Agent, that listing Agent (who only represents the Seller) gets the entire commission (example: 6% Commission--Listing Agent 6%, No Buyer Agent/Representation Present; however, if you have a Buyer Agent, you get representation, and the Seller pays for it with the other half of the commission agreed to when listing the property originally (example: 6% commission--Listing Agent-3%, Buyer Agent-3% All Paid By Seller). Some people think that if they don't have an Agent, they will save money or be able to negotiate the amount. That is usually not the case. If the Listing Agent decides not to take the entire commission, that money goes back into the Sellers pocket, not yours!
