How Does is Work? In every Real Estate transaction, there are 2 sides - the seller’s side and the buyer’s side. As an agents, we represent the party with whom there is a contract. Unless we have a contract with you, the buyer, my loyalty must be to the seller. As a Buyer’s Agent, we sign a contract with you the buyer. We can then put your interest first, negotiate on your behalf, and use our best efforts to find the property you are looking for.
Benefits to the Buyer Ethically, as the seller’s subagent, we must tell you, the buyer, not to say anything to me that you would not say directly to the seller due to our contractual loyalty to the seller. However, as your buyer agent, we can give you our loyalty, and there is confidentiality. We are working in YOUR best interest.
Disadvantages to the Buyer As your representative, we am working in YOUR interest. But, you as a buyer client, have a contractual responsibility to buy your property through us during the time the contract covers, even if you find a property on your own.
