What are the benefits of having a buyer’s agent in today’s market?

Currently, we’re in a strong seller’s market. Houses are flying off the market as soon as they are listed. In fact, a house can be listed and sold on the same day. A lot of times, if you are relying on yourself alone or the Internet alone, it’s very difficult to snag a home because of the quick turnaround.

It is very important to align yourself with a knowledgeable agent who’s going to help you find a home quickly and make sure that you get a good deal on that home.

Another benefit to working with a buyer’s agent is gaining access to the Multiple Listing Service (MLS). With the MLS, you’ll be able to see listings as soon as they come on the market, which is a huge advantage. Internet home search sites can take up to two days to update, which means a home that pops up on one of those sites might be sold before you even get the chance to see it.
