An Exclusive Buyer's Agent vs. a Traditional Real Estate Agent
The concept of an Exclusive Buyer's Agent is fairly new to the Long Island area and many people ask me, "so how are you different from a traditional real estate agent?" The benefits of working with an Exclusive Buyer's Agent (EBA) vs. a traditional agent are many:
First and foremost, an EBA works at a firm that never takes seller listings and never represents sellers. That allows your agent to more aggressively locate homes for you and negotiate lower prices without adversely influencing any listing inventory (because we have none). The reputation of getting the best deal for our buyers helps build our favorable reputation. Only an Exclusive Buyer's Agent can GUARANTEE to represent only you in your home purchase and negotiate only for you. An EBA provides the true facts as to value, market/neighborhood conditions, and obvious physical defects. The high level of negotiation training and expertise of an EBA truly levels the playing field during the negotiation process. Any information you provide to your EBA is always kept confidential and never provided to the seller (with a traditional agent, all your information must be provided to the seller). Prior to negotiating, we give you our opinion of value for the home and discuss negotiating strategies. We then negotiate to get the home at the price you want to pay. An EBA will recommend that the buyer utilize a qualified home inspector. Listing agents (the ones with the "For Sale" sign in the front yard) and the company that they work for represent the SELLER, not the BUYER. Their job is to get the SELLER the highest price on the best terms. An EBA's job is to get the BUYER the lowest price on the best terms. EBAs will do a better job for transferees than anyone else. They will give you the facts, good and bad. A listing agent cannot tell you about many things that would be detrimental for the BUYER because they work for the SELLER. EBA's have a legal and ethical obligation to put your interests first!
