Why Do I Need Buyer Representation When Purchasing a Home?
Buyer representation is important when buying a home in North Georgia, as a home purchase is one of the largest financial commitments most of us make. Savvy buyers should take steps to protect themselves in this process and working with a Realtor that can be held accountable to the highest standards in our profession makes perfect sense.
It is very important to have a reputable, licensed Realtor represent you in the buying process of a property. If you call the listing agent on the sign, they are being paid to represent the seller, so it is their obligation to perform their duties to their client and not you the buyer.
Our goal at Southern Select Properties is to provide our buyers with experienced buyer representation through the entire process, so you get the best deal and know you are our top priority.
