Did you know… Your professional agent helps with ALL of these details!

Benefits of Working with a REALTOR®:

1. Expert advice at no cost to the home buyer… The agent who helps you buy a home is traditionally paid by the seller.
2. A REALTOR® has access to the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) with thousands of homes to choose from, many of them not available unless you are working with an agent.  A great agent also has additional resources and networks to know what homes are about to come on the market (frequently known as pre-MLS).
3. An experienced agent can supply community and industry information, provide expert guidance in difficult situations, negotiate on your behalf, and help resolve and foresee challenges.  Working with a professional provides you more protection from legal and financial liability.
4. A REALTOR® will handle much of the paperwork associated with the purchase of a home and the escrow process… A great agent will enable your transaction to be virtually paper-less!
5. You use a professional for your legal, financial and health-care needs… Why gamble on what may be your biggest investment – the purchase of a home.
