What is Buyer Agency?

I’m a buyer, how can the Jackson Real Estate Team help me? By representing you as a Buyer’s Agent! 

Did you know that by calling the name listed on the sign in front of the house you will be at a disadvantage in the negotiations of the purchase of the house? It is the listing agents fiduciary (position of trust or confidence) duty to represent the home seller.  This means that all loyalties in this relationship are to the seller.  The listing agent cannot offer you an opinion of the property’s value or of the properties condition. The listing agent cannot help in determining the motivation of the seller or if the seller will take less than the asking price. The listing agent is even required to disclose information you may have inadvertently mentioned in your discussions.  You may have mentioned things such as “I have been looking for a home like this for over a year.”  Or “ I am going to offer this but I would be willing to offer more if required.” Or something as simple as “I have to be out of my current place of residence by such and such a time.”  All of these common statements are signals of your motivation and would be shared to the seller by the listing agent. A Buyer’s Agent is employed by and exclusively represents you the Buyer.  His responsibilities are to the buyers’ interests throughout and working to negotiate the best price and terms for the buyer.
