Why should I use an Exclusive Buyer Agent?

BECAUSE WE ELIMINATE THE

CONFLICT OF INTEREST

IN REAL ESTATE!

The definition of an Exclusive Buyer’s Agent is an agent who acts solely on behalf of the buyer, and never takes listings. In addition, none of the agents in their company ever take listings.

What Does it Mean to Say “I Represent the Buyer Exclusively”

  • No Salesmanship: Exclusive Buyer’s Agents do not sell real estate. They deliver a service. An EBA must deliver all pertinent information for the buyer-client to be able to make an informed decision on whether or not to purchase the proposed home.

  • No Pressure:   Exclusive Buyer’s Agents are paid professional consultants. They never pressure their client to make a decision to purchase a particular property. Nonetheless, when appropriate, and still without exerting undue pressure, the broker must advise the buyer-client of the ramifications of such acts as delaying decisions and making inappropriate offers.

  • Reasonable Care and Diligence:   An Exclusive Buyer’s Agent is responsible for researching a targeted property and its surroundings to discover all material information prior to a buyer-client making an offer to purchase.

  • Negotiator:   The exclusive buyer broker has assumed the responsibility to make sure their buyer-clients never unknowingly overpay for the home being purchased. It is the Buyer’s Agents job to do a market analysis on every home the buyer-client intends to make an offer on. If the Buyer’s Agent knows of any information regarding the sellers willingness to accept less than the listed price, it is their fiduciary responsibility to inform the buyer-client of such facts. Loyalty:     An Exclusive Buyer’s Broker must always think of the buyer-client before him or herself, even when it may not be in the EBA’s best interest. An Exclusive Buyer’s Agent must always be loyal, to the buyer, never doing anything that would intentionally jeopardize the buyer-client’s best interests.

  • Obedience:   An Exclusive Buyer’s Agent owes absolute obedience to the buyer client provided that the Agent is not asked to violate any State or Federal statutes or regulations. The EBA has the job to search out the entire area to the best of his / her ability for the homes that best meet their clients needs and not to waste time showing their clients home that does not meet their criteria. Doing otherwise would be a breach of contract between the EBA and the client.

  • Disclosure:   An Exclusive Buyer’s Agent must disclose any information he / she knows about the seller to the buyer-client. An Exclusive Buyer’s Agent must also disclose any pertinent facts about the property and the immediate area known to him / her or, which should be reasonably expected to be known as the representative of the buyer-client.

  • Confidentiality:   An Exclusive Buyer’s Agent must keep all sensitive information concerning his / her client confidential, unless the client has given the EBA permission to disclose such information.

  • The Contract:   The Exclusive Buyer’s Agent is bound by contract to perform on behalf of the buyer. A buyer should always insist on having a contractual relationship with their Agent. This contract fully obligates and defines the legal responsibilities of the EBA. The buyer client now can have recourse against his / her real estate agent if in fact the agent has not done his / her job thoroughly. In dealings with the seller, an Exclusive Buyer’s Agent should exercise reasonable skill and care in performance of the agent’s duties, deal honestly, fairly and in good faith and disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecting the buyer’s ability and/or willingness to perform a contract to acquire seller’s property that are not inconsistent with the agent’s fiduciary duties to the buyer.
