Welcome again to MattSellsSCV.com! Here’s a short bit of information that some Santa Clarita first home buyers may not be aware of. Did you know, the real estate agent selected to represent you in your home purchase transaction costs the buyer nothing! Matt Gregory of the Gregory Real Estate Group has successfully helped many Santa Clarita home buyers with their home buying needs. Take a look at this short video and read below to learn more.
Many young buyers think they somehow might have to pay their Realtor® for representation. Some will do everything possible to avoid a real estate agent because they think it might cost them something to work with one. Some also think, if they directly contact the selling agent shown on the For Sale Sign, they’ll somehow save money. This is also false! Generally the buyer agent is compensated by the seller at the close of escrow. The buyer agent is legally responsible for representing the buyer’s interest in a real estate transaction. It just makes good sense for any home buyer to select an agent with a proven track record, that also understands their specific needs. An experienced agent will be able to protect the interest of the new home buyer, so the buyer can focus on selecting their new home, without distractions.
With the large number of short sale and foreclosure properties in the Santa Clarita real estate market, it’s especially critical Santa Clarita buyers are represented with an expert agent experienced with distressed property transactions.
