Why Use An Agent?

Buyers Should Choose Who Represents Them Wisely!

Why should I use a real estate agent? It is important that you get a real estate agent who is a local market expert. In most markets (including Atlanta) realtors are paid a commission by the seller. The purchaser is not obligated to pay any additional fee.

A good agent can save you time and money. Be sure your agent understands financing. Even though they don’t provide the loan—they should understand and be able to explain to you all the important information in the loan documents that you should be particularly concerned with.

Be sure you get the best loan for your situation as you will be making payments over several years—and your financing choice could cost—or save you thousands of dollars over the life of the loan.

Are you concerned about paying too much?

A real estate agent can provide a CMA (Competitive Market Analysis) that will help ensure that you don’t pay too much.

As a further check appraisals are required by nearly all lenders. Be wary of CMA’s and appraisals as there has been fraud associated with both methods over the last few years.

Do your own independent research if you are concerned or skeptical, and use the CMA’s and appraisal as a further check.  If your research and the CMA’s and/or appraisals are off by over 10% reconsider your purchase and do further research.

Sellers Should Choose Who Represents Them Wisely!

A professional real estate agent can assist home seller's by providing helpful tips and advice to get their home in top selling condition for their market. They will know if the market in your area is a buyer's, seller's or normal market.

Real Estate agents will also be able to provide current and timely market information and advice that can help your home sell faster and for top dollar. Be sure to use a knowledgeable highly effective agent when you decide to list your home.

If you decide to sell the home yourself without the assistance of an agent be sure to go to our site map page and select the For Sale By Owner pages to find timely and helpful advice.
