Buying with Sell 207

This form outlines the duties that a buyer's agent owes to you - remember, you only become a client once you enter into a written agreement with your buyer's agent. 

What to expect when financing a home? This is the road map from start to finish all in one place.

It's important to have all your financial ducks in a row before we start to look for homes. If you intend to pay cash, a certified proof of funds letter should be added to our file that we can provide to listing agents upon request. If you are planning to use a loan, we need the contact information for your lender, as well as a pre-approval letter in hand to start looking at homes. 

Having everything ready up front ensures a smoother and faster process for you. Below, you'll find a checklist to guide you.

Here is the link to the loan application 

Something important to discuss up front is how the money flows through a transaction and how Sell 207 gets paid for the services we provide. 

Once we decide to work together - our buyer representation contract states that you (buyer) will pay us (Sell 207 / agency ) a % of the sale price of the home when you buy it. This fee is negotiable, and often times it varies depending on the purchase price of the home. 

We will use the "Seller Compensation Addendum" in our offer / purchase and sale requesting that the seller's pay Sell 207 directly for the commission that your contract states. 

If we received your contact information by another licensed real estate agent we are likely sending 25% of our commission to that agent. If Sell 207 places you with another buyer agent to work with outside of our service area, a portion of their compensation may come back to us as a referral compensation. 

This is a sample contract between you (the buyer) and us (Sell 207) outlines the geographic area in which we service, the start and end date of working together, and how much we as agents / brokerage get paid. 

We will then use the Seller Compensation Addendum (shown previously) to request the seller to pay our fee when we submit our offer for consideration. 

We work with a number of lenders, title companies, and attorneys across the state. Here are our top recommendations for each: 

LENDER | Morgan Camplin: 207-522-5241
