Why use a realtor
If you’re planning to buy a Central Florida home and you’re experienced enough to deal with the buying process (which is much different than in the UK), then you may feel that you don’t need the services of a Realtor. We completely respect that point of view.
On the other hand, there are many benefits that working with a Realtor (as your Buyer’s Agent) brings: |
| |
 |
|
Knowledge of local market conditions and prices and how things work in the Florida system. |
|
| |
 |
|
Professional advice for free, because in the Florida system, a Buyer’s Agent receives a proportion of the Selling Agent’s commission. |
|
| |
|
|
Identification of all properties listed for sale by any Realtor in the area: all of these properties are on one common computer database that all Realtors have access to. |
|
| |
|
|
Highlighting of the top properties for sale matching the client’s needs and representing good value for money. |
|
| |
|
|
Time saving, by scheduling viewing times for suitable properties and then driving the client to each one in turn. This allows more properties to be viewed in a shorter time. |
|
| |
|
|
Experience in negotiating contracts, providing advice on whether sellers or buyers are being realistic. |
|
| |
|
|
Preparation of a written offer on the buyer’s behalf, using a State-approved standard contract. |
|
| |
|
|
Advice on how to deal with any counter offer. |
|
| |
|
|
Recommendation of points to be negotiated in the contract. |
|
| |
|
|
Assistance in procuring the required specialists, such as home inspector, title company, finance company, and so on. |
|
| |
|
|
Guidance on how to proceed to bring the transaction to a successful closing. |
