It’s important that you choose an experienced agent who is there for you. Your agent should be actively finding you potential homes, keeping you informed of the entire process, negotiating furiously on your behalf, and answering all of your questions with competence and speed.

First, find an agent who represents YOU and not the seller. This is beneficial during the negotiation process. If you are working with a buyer’s agent, they have YOUR best interests in mind (not the sellers).  If you work with the listing agent (sellers agent) their first priority is to get their seller TOP DOLLAR for their property.

Also, when you use me as your buyer’s agent, you will see more properties. Sure that app on your phone is handy (and frankly it's a good tool to use) but it should not be your only way of finding 'hot homes'. Not only am I plugged into the local Multiple Listing Service (MLS), I am actively finding homes that are listed as FSBO, talking with other agents who may have listings coming up that are not listed yet and I am talking with sellers are thinking about listing that may not be on the market yet.
