Scottsdale Real Estate Agents
Do you know who your Real Estate agent is really working for?
There are different types of Real Estate Agents and it is very much in your interest to understand the differences.
Listing (or Seller's) Agents are agents who list homes for sale. The name you see on a FOR SALE sign is a listing agent. They also may have the so-called "exclusive listing." (Actually such lists are generally found on the MLS database which any licensed Real Estate Agent can access). It's important to remember that listing agents are working for the person who is selling the property. It is their objective to get the very best deal for the seller.
New Home Salespeople are employed by a particular builder or developer. They are the agents you will talk to when you visit new model homes or condo/ loft models. Most often, these agents are under contract and are only allowed to sell only that builder's or developer's homes.
Buyer's Agents are the agents representing you, the buyer. Scottsdale Real Estate is a Buyer's Agent who will work with you to obtain the best possible deal on any new home, condominium or loft you purchase.
What you don't know about Real Estate Agents can cost you!
• When a listing agent sells you a home, he or she receives a substantial commission based on the sales price (generally about 6%). It is not in their interest to lower the price. Their focus is to obtain listings and market their listings aggressively in order to obtain the best deal for their clients - the person selling the property.
• Salespeople at new home/ condo or loft models are specifically trained to sell you one of their builder's or developer's homes. They generally work on a commission basis. If you don't buy from their builder, they don't make a commission.
• Neither the listing (seller's) agent nor the new home/condo salesperson has an interest in showing you a wide range of property. You will generally see only the homes they represent - the property that will earn them commission if you buy.
As a Buyer's Agent, we work for YOU!
• It's our goal to help you find the best home, loft or condo for you and your family...and the best price. We have no interest in directing you toward any particular property. We'll enable you to look at and select from all the available properties that meet the criteria you have set.
• We'll help you search on your timetable, not ours. We are confident that you will purchase that home or condo when you find the appropriate one. And when you use our services to buy a home, our commission (about 3% or half the total) comes from the seller.
