Recently, many friends and clients here in Calgary have asked us why they need to hire a buyer's agent when they can just work with the agent who represents the seller. In short, why bring an extra person in the process?

Many problems could arise when working with the seller's listing agent. For one, that agent is representing the seller and their interests, first and foremost. Your needs take a back seat to the seller's. A buyer's agent levels the playing field - they have your back to ensure you get the best possible deal.

We often hear from people who don't realize that the friendly salesperson in the brand new home aren't representing the buyer. They are getting a paycheck from the builder to showcase the builder's product. In order to see past the sales pitch and make smart decisions, you need to work with someone who is experienced, knows the market, and can help you make informed choices. Sometimes the right move is to simply walk away.

Over the years, we at Best Listings Calgary have developed an extensive list of questions we ask all of our clients before we even begin looking at homes. These questions will help us get a better understanding of your needs, so we can show you homes that fit your particular circumstances. We won't waste your valuable time looking at 60 homes - that only makes the buying process more complicated than it needs to be. We'll put together a list according to your wishes and find you the right home in an efficient matter.

If you have any questions about how we get things done, or are have any real estate questions in general, give us a call or shoot us an email. We would be pleased to assist you!
