What are the advantages of a buying agent?

The property market is always moving but in the last few years, there’s been a lot of demand and not nearly enough supply. People searching for properties experience a lot of pressure to find but also to eventually purchase a property. It’s not as easy as one might think. That’s why it’s very important to have your interests represented professionally by a buyers’ agent. Someone that works just for you and will ensure that you can buy the right property under the right conditions and without any legal wrongdoings. 

The process from searching to the handover of the keys is often a mixtures of emotion and reason. At the end of the day, you want a house that feels like home. You also want the purchase conditions and comprehensive legal matter to be arranged properly and that’s exactly what a good buying agent can ensure. 

We’ve listed a few advantages of hiring a buying agent:

  1. Buying agents have extensive knowledge of the local property market. They’ll help you identify the areas that meet your criteria and add value to your investment. 
  2. Buying agents know about structural engineering and, should it get too complicated for them, they can bring you in touch with a structural engineering professional. 
  3. If you bring a buying agent to a showing, you’ll come across as a serious candidate to the seller, which can bring its’ own advantages. 
  4. A buying agent is an experienced negotiator and can stipulate the best price and conditions on your behalf. They strive for a deal that works best in your favor as buyer.  
  5. They will guide you throughout the entire purchasing process, from finding potential properties to wrapping up the transaction.  
  6. A buying agent will take on most of the administrative tasks, such as drawing up proposals, handling the contracts and coordinating inspections and other appointments.
