Like any situation when you're buying something, there are 2 parties to that transaction - a buyer and a seller.
That's why in real estate, depending on which side you're on, your agent is either acting as a 'buyer's agent' or a 'seller's agent'.
While for most people it's clear what the seller's agent does, I have noticed it's not always clear what a buyer's agent's role is.
In this week's video, I explore the importance of working with an agent when you're buying a home.
I also share the specifics on what a buyer's agent does for you, how they're able to represent and protect you when buying a home, and also how they're compensated.
