Exclusive Buyer's Agent FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q Who does the listing agent represent?

A They represent the seller, never the buyer. They owe loyalty to the seller. The listing agent has their sign with a phone number in the front yard. If you call the number and ask to see the house, they will do their best to SELL you that home. Their  job is to get the seller the highest price, the best terms, and look out for the seller's best interests. Not bad if you are selling your home.

 

As an Exclusive Buyer's Agent, our job is to get you, the buyer, the lowest possible price and the most favorable terms while looking out for YOUR best interests.

 

Q How much does it cost me to use your services?

A FREE !  Our services are free to our clients.

 

Q How does  your company get paid?

A There is a commission built into the sale of the home that is paid by the seller to the listing agent. Our company gets paid through the listing agent.

 

Q The higher the selling price, the higher the commission your company gets, right?  Isn't that a conflict of interest?

A NO, it is not a conflict of interest. Most of our business comes from referrals and return clients. If we save our clients $5,000 on a $150,000 house, that's a difference of only $150 in commissions and...... another very happy client.

 

Q  Are you a licensed REALTOR®? Are you a member of the National Association of Realtors?

A Yes and Yes. We are also a members of the Texas Association of Realtors, the Houston Association of Realtors, and the National Association of Exclusive Buyer's Agents.

 

Q OK, I am interested in using an Exclusive Buyer's Agent. Exactly how will you help me buy my new home?

A While any licensed real estate agent can be a "buyers agent",  as an Exclusive Buyer's Agent, we offer a higher level of service through our 100% commitment to home buyers. Our time is not consumed by listing and marketing homes. We find homes for our clients......Exclusively, without any conflict of interest.
