Home Buying Step-by-Step
Whenever you think of trying something new, it's often hard to figure out where to start. The first step to buying a property is making sure you’re fully informed, so you’ll be able to hit the ground running. The more you know, the better your experience will be.
Having an Agent Has Its Benefits
When you get right down to it, the simplest reason to have your own agent is that your agent works for you, while a seller's agent works for the seller. A seller's agent is working to get the best price and terms for their client, and a buyer's agent can do the same for you. A buyer’s agent can assist you with the entire process, from start to finish!

Consumer Relationships Guide
This guide explains the different relationships you can have with a real estate professional. Each has its own legal meaning and responsibilities, so it’s important to understand them. A real estate professional must give you this guide and discuss it with you.
Sample Buyer Representation Agreement
The buyer representation agreement is used to identify the rights and responsibilities of a real estate agent, as well as the service they will offer. It also clearly states the rights and responsibilities of the buyer, including what they agree to pay the brokerage for the use of their services in successfully finding a home for them.
