Thinking about buying a home?
The seller will have professional representation...Will you? You
see, sellers list their homes with real estate agents to assure
professional representation throughout the home selling process. As a
buyer, you deserve the same kind of servics.
Real estate agents may
represent either the buyer, the seller or the transaction. Is your agent
working for you? How do you know? How can you be sure that someone is
looking out for your best interests?
Colorado law requires
agency disclosure to prospective buyers. Every real estate agent must disclose
the types of agency through which he/she can represent you. If you do not sign
a buyer agency agreement, then you are NOT being represented. Don't make this
mistake. Consider your options and outcomes. Here are some facts:

You do not have to sign an
agency agreement (buyer brokerage) with the agent until you are sure that the
agent is someone you WANT to work with. You should never feel pressured or
obligated to sign anything UNTIL you are absolutely confident that the agent
has your best interest in mind.
