Where trust meets results!

📝 New NAR settlement policy is now in effect, likely already in your market. Don’t panic—just keep these three points in mind: 1️⃣ You need an agreement with your buyer agent, but it doesn’t have to be exclusive or long-term. Negotiate the terms and shop for an agent you trust *before* shopping for a home. You may have to interview a few before you find the right fit. This is worth the time and effort. 2️⃣ Commission is negotiable, and now it’s written into the forms. Even though MLS doesn’t disclose the buyer agency compensation, it can still be negotiated in your sales contract. This is true even if the seller isn't proactively offering compensation. 3️⃣ Don’t forgo representation just to avoid fees—it could cost you in the long run. Skillful buyer agents know your market and can not only negotiate a deal for you that makes sense, but also help with due diligence tasks that may keep you from making costly errors in your transaction
