LOCAL REAL ESTATE: The Power of Two
Outside the square
Clients who give us a brief of what they want in a house and where they want to live can often be a bit hazy, as what they may find is that when they start looking – the areas, and or the type of house and price they first said they would go to often flies out the window when they fall in love with a house outside their brief.
We have had a couple of clients recently who did just that, told us their price budget and the area they wanted to live in, only to end up purchasing in a totally different area and many thousand dollars more than what they briefed us. Why does this happen?
Well, human nature tells us sometimes we don’t really know what we are looking for until we see it, and sometimes it`s completely outside the Square. That’s why when your preferred agent calls you or emails you about different properties, different price guides and sometimes in different areas, don’t get too frustrated or annoyed by this, Real Estate agents have the scenario often, and they are just covering all bases, and keeping an open mind on what you the buyer may end up buying.
Working with one agent won’t disadvantage you either as a purchaser. Most good companies and good salespeople will work with other agencies – its what is known as conjuncting – this is a totally inhouse negotiation and plays no part in what you are willing to pay or sell for your property.
Working with just one agent, one that is dependable and trust worthy is a great way to find a new home especially if you are time poor and unable to search the papers and internet yourself. Buyer’s agents are very common in the USA and also Australia, not so common here, salespeople here generally have listings as well as time to show buyers other properties apart from what they are representing; a good buyer’s agent should know what you are looking for before you even know it.
As we work together we can work in both selling and buying areas of our industry. Double the knowledge and service.
