Why sign a Buyer Brokerage Agreement?
Posted by Brian Sims on Friday, March 25th, 2011 at 6:01pm.The simple answer is it's FREE and it immediately permits me to provide you, my client, with a wide variety of valuable information that is not readily available to the public.
The legal answer is "State law prohibits a Broker from representing a Buyer as a client without first entering into a written agreement with the Buyer."
In fact, I am not just permitted but I am now legally required to provide you with information that I know regarding a property. This includes everything from the market value of a certain home to whether it is located in the flood plain or is infested with termites.
A brokerage agreement also permits a Broker to negotiate on your behalf and handle a variety of other tasks that must be completed during the purchase and sale process.
Remember it's FREE. Not just the agreement but all of our services are FREE to buyers who work with one of our Hirsh Real Estate Specialists. In Paragraph 5 and Paragraph 6 of the brokerage agreement we specify that there is no Retainer Fee and that the only commission we receive will be paid by the seller, which is custom in Georgia.
So if you're in the market to buy a home in Smyrna, Vinings or Atlanta, give us a call. We would love to work with you and it won't cost you a penny.
