Why use a Realtor?
There are many advantages of working with a realtor. As a buyer, whether you work with me or someone else, this is a service you should always use because you do not pay a cent with buyer representation. It is important to build a relationship based on trust and honesty. Purchasing a home is a big decision and can be a scary one as well if you dont have someone solely looking out for your best interests. By committing to working with a realtor, they will work hard to keep you informed on new listings that meet your criteria, listings that aren't yet on the market, and if there arent properties that match your needs, they can seek unlisted propertys to see if the owners possibly sell for the right price or reason. Working with a realtor allows to you certain information that cannot be found publicly on the internet like past sales in a buildling or area
