BUYER CENTER

Enlisting the services of a professional Buyer’s Agent is similar to using an accountant to help you with your taxes, a doctor to help you with your health care, or a mechanic to help you with your car. So the first advantage is pretty obvious. If you had the time you could do all of these services yourself! But who has the time. You probably already have a full-time career to which you are committed. This is why you allow other professionals to help you in specific areas of expertise.

Rick has devoted his career to perfecting real estate service. Continuous education, market research & vast experience are combined with an excellent Group of real estate professionals to find you the perfect home quickly. Rick and his Group will guide you through the home buying process and exclusively represent your interests as we help you find a home, present your contract offer, negotiate and close the transaction.

Another advantage to signing a Buyer Agency Agreement with Rick’s Group is that you will have an entire Group of real estate professionals working to find and secure the perfect home for you exactly when you need it. It is nearly impossible to find a home that meets your needs, get a contract negotiated, and close the transaction without an experienced agent. Rick has vast computer networks to make sure you only tour homes that meet your needs. You won’t need to spend endless evenings and weekends driving around looking for homes for sale. When you tour homes with your personal Buyer’s Agent, you will already know that the homes meet your criteria for bedrooms, bathrooms, garage space, basement, neighborhood, etc. Also, your agent will ensure you are looking at homes in your price range.

Just as your accountant, doctor & mechanic get to know your needs through a steady relationship, your Buyer’s Agent also gets to know your real estate needs and concerns. This type of relationship is built by open communication at all times and by touring homes with your Agent so they get a good idea of your feedback and concerns about each of them. If you try to jump from Agent to Agent, you will not receive the best real estate service possible and you will be violating your agreement with your Agent. There is nothing to gain from trying to find and tour homes on your own when your Agent can tell you everything about any home before you see it.

Entering into a Buyer Agency Agreement has countless advantages and no disadvantages. When you sign a Buyer Agency Agreement, you are simply agreeing to "hire" a personal representative who, by law, must represent your best interests to the best of his/her ability. All of this personal service is available at absolutely NO COST TO YOU !!! With Rick and his Group you get an entire Group of real estate professionals devoted to protecting your needs to help you make one of the most important investment decisions of your life - and you don’t even have to pay the fee!

About this time you are probably saying to yourself, "this sounds too good to be true! What’s the catch?" The "catch" is that you are signing a legal document between you and the Buyer’s Agent that will establish a legal relationship with duties and obligations on the parts of both parties. Your Agent’s obligations are set forth by law, as is your obligation. Your obligation is merely this: you agree to let your Agent represent your home buying needs exclusively throughout the duration of the agreement until you find a home and take title. The duration is a variable you decide. This is to guarantee that the Buyer’s Agent receives compensation from the Seller’s Agent for the work he/she has been doing for you. Signing the Buyer Agency Agreement merely means that you agree that your Agent should be compensated for the services in guiding you professionally through the home buying process. Of course, the beauty of the situation for the buyer is that you don’t even have to pay the fee. If you do buy a home while under a Buyer Agency Agreement, the Buyer Agent named in the agreement must receive commission compensation. This is established by law to prevent unscrupulous people from taking advantage of the compensation structure of the real estate industry.
