HUD Booklet Recommends you use an Exclusive Buyer's Agent

The US Department of Housing and Urban Development has released a new booklet outlining the basics of the home-buying process. It's a great read if you are just getting started.

Wisely, on page 4 they recommend using an Exclusive Buyer's Agent to represent you when purchasing a home.  Exclusive Buyers Agents are highly-qualified agents who employ a unique and powerful approach to real estate. Unlike a typical real estate brokerage, Exclusive Buyers' Brokerages don't list houses for sale. Instead, we help buyers buy real estate of all kinds. We specialize in buying, and we spend 100% of our time and resources on helping buyers find the right properties, negotiate the best prices, and investigate the properties as thoroughly as possible prior to purchase. The advantages we provide to our buyers take many shapes. If you are interested, start by reading our FAQ.

The only Exclusive Buyer's Agents are the ones who work at brokerages that do not accept listings. If anyone in the company lists property for sale, then no one in the company is really an EBA. We sacrifice quite a bit to put our passion into practice. We are that committed to the success of buyers.

We are not salespersons. We don't ever try to "sell" a property to anyone. We help people buy the property they want at the best possible price and terms and with the greatest peace of mind. We are participants in the MLS, so we can show you any listed property, but we don't stop there. Our clients often want us to find properties that are not on the MLS, for sale by owner properties, and other properties that apparently aren't for sale at all. We help buyers will all this, and more.

This is why HUD recommends you find an EBA to represent you in your next purchase. And it's just not HUD. Check out our articles page for a list of quotes relating to exclusive buyer agency by experts of all kinds.
