Choosing the Right Buyer’s Agent

From today’s HooK.

Choose the right representation. Choose the right buyer’s agent. Choose someone whom you trust and get along with and like - not just because you met them at an open house, or because they have a blog, or because they are your sister’s husband’s friend who is just getting started and needs a break. Choosing the wrong representation is not just not worth it.

A good (great) buyer’s agent is someone who will advocate 100% on your behalf - simple. Contrary to public opinion, a good buyer’s agent is focused on the client’s needs more than their own. If you feel that “your” Realtor is focused more on the “sale” than your best interests - tell him.
