Sometimes realtors will split commission if buyer's realtor finds sellers property. More important to have a top notch attorney on your side at contract time. ---------- I like Sloppy Seconds http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rf96br9LS.... tribute to Joey Ramone http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1m5FXPYgx.... 2012-07-31 07:58:16 From PDA Permalink

He will love you for this, because he won't have to split his commission with your realtor. IMO, there's no point in hiring a realtor as a buyer if you don't need someone to show you properties. However, you may wish to consider hiring an attorney who specializes in real estate to look over any and all paperwork that you sign before you sign it. This shouldn't cost very much. -Uwe- ---------- “Whenever the legislators endeavor to take away and destroy the property of the people, or to reduce them to slavery under arbitrary power, they put themselves into a state of war with the people, who are thereupon absolved from any further obedience.” - John Locke 2012-07-31 07:58:47 Permalink

Unless you can work a deal you may not be any better off and you possibly give up anyone working on your best interests. The lawyer advice is golden. 2012-07-31 15:05:20 Permalink

Randy123 Posts: 5776 Incept: 2008-09-24 Earth	I bought without one. Her agency gave me someone to represent me on my side for nothing....and yes she took less commission to get the deal done. Better not get one from the buy side. ---------- China is the Enemy. Wake Up. New Normal. Same As The Old Awful. 2012-07-31 16:37:41 Permalink
Sunriser1 Posts: 3115 Incept: 2007-10-30	Vegas, I think it depends on what type of market you’re working with. If you are trying to bottom feed on REO and short sales I would use a Realtor. To get the best deal you have to move fast and be accessible 24/7. If you have a family and or job it can be overwhelming. ---------- People call me depressing, I tell them I'm just well informed. 2012-07-31 17:40:48 Permalink
Vegasradar Posts: 8664 Incept: 2007-07-11	I just had a Realt*** tell me that the market is running away from me and that the best opportunity to low ball sellers was last year and that I need to be able to bid 20-30% over asking price. I'm trying to submit a 2003 price offer and it is too low cuz the Realt*s have them listed 2006 prices which are 100k + over last year EVERY. SINGLE. ING. MARKET. / INSTITUTION. IN THIS COUNTRY. IS.

Aliveh Posts: 4043 Incept: 2008-01-18 Los Angeles	if you don't like the price don't buy. it's not that complicated. markets have a tendency of shaking out weak hands - that's what all the manipulation is designed to do. I'm pretty confident it will come my way eventually - in the meantime I'm saving up. 2012-08-08 00:32:06 Permalink
