Do Home Seekers Need to Sign a Contract to Tour Homes?
Article
courtesy of Realtor.com
It’s human nature for folks to want to sneak a peek at their neighbor’s open house—even if they’re not truly home seekers looking to buy. Trust us, stopping by to grab a cookie and gawk is something we’ve all done (or at least thought about doing).
Casual lookers can often wander into open houses without so much as leaving their name, but if you’re actually serious about buying a home, do you have to sign a contract with a buyer’s agent before making the rounds to visit homes for sale?
You certainly don’t need to be with an agent to drop in on an open house—and visiting a few can help you refine what you’re looking for, which in turn helps your future agent help you.
But smart buyers will reach out to a real estate agent to help with the process, says Steve Ujvagi, owner of Atlanta-based Keller Williams Results Team.
“Assuming you, as a buyer, have found an agent who is kind, sane, hardworking, and knows the local market. It would be in your best interest to commit to that particular agent,” he says.
Do you need to sign a contract?
Once you decide on a buyer’s agent, you will have to sign a contract before touring a home with that buyer’s agent in person or virtually, outlining the agent’s services and compensation.
However, you do not need a written agreement if you are simply interviewing a potential buyer’s agent or talking to a
Article courtesy of Realtor.com
listing agent who is holding an open house. In general, the contract you do sign should outline the negotiated terms, detailing the services provided and their cost.
“A contract ensures that the buyer and their agent both understand and agree on how the agent will be paid for their efforts,” And in return for that loyalty, the agent should do all they can for the client, making the contract a win-win for both parties.
How to avoid a misunderstanding
Any agent who is trying to work with you should ask questions such as “Are you currently represented by an agent?” and “Have any other agents shown you homes?”
But if not, you, as the buyer, can be very clear with an upfront statement such as “I will let you know if I choose you as my buyer rep; I am currently interviewing other agents, too.” Ready to house hunt? It’s a jungle out there: Prepare for a flurry of paperwork, stampedes of buyers competing for the same digs, and other challenges before you get your hands on those house keys.
We won’t lie: The process can be complex and stressful—especially if you are a first-time buyer. Having a real estate pro by your side can make all the difference.
You might have heard of buyer’s agents, selling agents, listing agents, and so on. You’re a buyer, so what is a buyer’s agent?
True to their name, buyer’s agents are ethically obligated to work in a buyer’s best interest. They help real estate buyers navigate the real estate market and can also save you tons of time on the road to your new home. Recently, the National Association of REALTORS® reached a settlement that went into effect on Aug. 17, 2024. The settlement includes several changes between the agent and buyer relationship that benefit homebuyers.
Here’s how a real estate buyer’s agent can help you in your home search, and how to find the right one for you.
Benefits of using a buyer’s agent
“A buyer’s agent will guide you through the homebuying transaction and be at your disposal for any questions or concerns,” says Shane Wilcox, a real estate professional with Partners Trust.
Here are some of the things a buyer’s agent can do:
Find the right property
After determining what the clients are looking for and what they can afford, the agent will Do Home Seekers Need to Sign a Contract to Tour Homes?
schedule appointments to tour homes that fit the bill. The agent can also explain the pros and cons of various properties and neighborhoods to help buyers decide which home is right for them.
Negotiate the offer
The buyer’s agent will advise clients on an appropriate price to offer and present it to the seller’s agent. “Then they will negotiate on your behalf and write up the contracts for you,”. The agent’s experience in negotiating deals can save you money and help you avoid pitfalls like a fixer-upper that’s more trouble than it’s worth.
Recommend other professionals
A buyer’s agent should also be able to refer you to reliable mortgage brokers, real estate attorneys, home inspectors, movers, and other real estate professionals. This can also help expedite each step of the process and move you to a successful real estate sale all the faster.
Help overcome setbacks
If the home inspector’s report or appraisal uncovers new issues, a buyer’s agent can advise you on how to proceed with the transaction and act as a buffer between you and the sellers or their broker. If negotiations become heated or hostile, it’s extremely helpful to have an experienced professional
keep calm and offer productive solutions.
Buyer’s agent vs. listing agent: What’s the difference?
Buyer’s agents are legally bound to help buyers, whereas listing agents—the real estate agent representing the home listing—have a fiduciary duty to the home seller.
“That’s why it’s in your best interest as a buyer to get an agent who is there to represent you,” “Think about it this way: If you were getting sued, would you hire the same attorney as the person suing you? Of course not. You need someone who will diligently fight for your interests and rights.”
Let’s say, for instance, you walked up to the listing agent at an open house. You might gush about how you love the home and want to buy it. You may then unwittingly add that you will need to move soon— because you’re expecting your second child and need to decorate the nursery pronto or because the lease on your rental is up in a couple of months.
A seller’s agent could then use this information against you by informing the sellers that your clock is ticking, so they shouldn’t budge too much on their asking price—if at all.
Do Home Seekers Need to Sign a Contract to Tour Homes?
Article courtesy of Realtor.com
Yet make this same confession to the buyer’s agent you’re working with. This professional would know to keep this information private from sellers (and their agents) so it can’t be used in negotiations. Some states, recognizing this problem, required a disclosure of dual agency when a broker represents both sides of a real estate transaction. In some states, dual agency is illegal.
However, you may still not be comfortable after signing an agreement saying you know someone is a dual agent. You might want to hire an agent who is not representing the owner, and who is looking out for your best interests.
How to find a buyer’s agent
A good buyer’s agent can ease the path to homeownership, while a bad one can result in a bumpy ride. Here are some questions to ask to help you find the right one.
“What neighborhoods do you specialize in?”
Real estate requires local expertise, so you should find an agent who’s extremely familiar with the areas you’re interested in.
“What’s your schedule and availability?”
Committed part-time real estate agents can do a fine job, but if the house of your dreams pops up or you encounter lastminute closing snafus, you want an agent who is readily reachable.
“How long have you been a real estate agent?”
You ideally want someone with a couple of years of experience and a proven track record of selling homes.
To find real estate agents in your area, head to realtor.com/realestateagents, where you can also read online reviews provided by past clients and learn more.
The agent/buyer contract
Once you agree to work with someone, you will have to sign a contract before touring a home in person or virtually, outlining the agent’s services and compensation (more on that next). However, you do not need a written agreement if you are simply interviewing an agent or talking at an open house.
This contract also means that this person will be your sole representative and that you won’t work with other buyer’s agents. In general, the contract should outline the negotiated terms, detailing the services
Do Home Seekers Need to Sign a Contract to Tour Homes?
Article courtesy of Realtor.com
provided and their cost. According to the settlement for the NAR, the contract should also include these things before you sign it.
• A specific and conspicuous disclosure of the amount or rate of compensation the real estate agent will receive or how this amount will be determined.
• Compensation that is objective (e.g., $0, X flat fee, X percent, X hourly rate)—and not open-ended (e.g., cannot be “buyer broker compensation shall be whatever the amount the seller is offering to the buyer”).
• A term that prohibits the agent from receiving compensation for brokerage services from any source that exceeds the amount or rate agreed to in the agreement with the buyer.
Who covers the buyer’s agent commission?
In the past, sellers generally covered both buyer and seller’s agent fees. As of Aug. 17, buyers will be responsible for paying their agents a fee. Remember, your agent’s compensation is fully negotiable.
While the seller may agree to compensate your agent, this offer cannot be shared on a multiple listing service (MLS)—local
marketplaces used by both buyer brokers and listing brokers to share property information.
As a buyer, you can still accept concessions from the seller, such as offers to cover your closing costs. When choosing a real estate agent, ask about their services and compensation to ensure you fully understand the process.

As a part of a military family, I am deeply familiar with the challenges that come with relocating, including international relocations. And I love using the lessons I've learned to help my clients, including other military families, find their perfect homes.
My family has been very fortunate to have been able to travel and live across the world, but we're proud to call the Metro-East home. I love all of the festivals, events and volunteer opportunities we have around us, and the sense of community in our city.
Serving the Metro East community from Wood River to Edwardsville and down to O'Fallon, Mascoutah, Shiloh, Fairview Heights and Belleville, I am passionate about working closely with my buyers and sellers to give them the most successful, personalized experience possible. To me, there is no greater reward than to help someone realize their dream of home ownership. I simply love what I do! Call or text and let me help you make a move.

I've been in the real estate business for two years. My clients are always surprised at how much I know about their homes and neighborhood. I serve all the Metro-East markets and enjoy helping my clients pursue their dreams of home ownership and selling their homes.
Since I was little, I've always been obsessed with houses, so real estate was always at the back of my mind. After my daughter was old enough to start school, I finally turned my dream into a realty reality.
I'm a huge believer that buying or selling your home is an emotional process—and it's important to me that my clients feel comfortable with me as we go through this together. I adore working with people from all different backgrounds and personality types. I can mesh well with just about anyone. I want them to feel like they're getting the best possible service from someone who knows the market inside and out, cares deeply about helping them find their dream home or sell theirs for top dollar and will be there for them every step of the way. Clients describe me as hardworking, attentive, caring and funny.
I love spending time with my family when I'm not working on real estate deals. My husband and I have been married for 12 years. We have a 7-year-old daughter and a Pitbull, Josie.

With family going back four generations in Belleville, Smithton area, I know the Metro East from St. Clair to Madison and Monroe counties like the back of my hand and help clients in every one of those areas. I went to high school here and graduated from SIUE before meeting my wife and moving away.
My favorite part of real estate is educating first-time home buyers, catching up with repeat clients and assisting those downsizing. I explain topics in an easily digestible manner so that my clients can make informed decisions.
My experience in insurance sparked my interest in real estate as I was intrigued by the valuation process when building insurance quotes for people. I am still fascinated with valuations and have completed a certification class to become a licensed Real Estate Appraiser. Although, I will continue to work as a Realtor because I love working with people. I never meet a stranger and look forward to making new relationships through real estate.
I cherish the relationship that I have with my wife above all else. For the last 20+ years, her career has taken us on a journey across the US. This experience helps me understand the nuances and stressors of moving into a new house and relocating to a new community. With her retirement, we have recently moved back and plan to stay here. One of the things I love, in addition to the true Midwestern mentality, is the small community gatherings, picnics, and community involvement that I haven’t seen anywhere else.

With 45 years of experience as a licensed Realtor and 50+ years of experience in real estate, I still get excited to meet new clients. Even though I accidentally fell into real estate by helping my late husband, I couldn't imagine a better way to make a living.

As a former Operation Specialist in the U.S. Navy, I take great pride in helping service members relocate to Scott AFB. I use my 12 years of Real Estate experience and 26 years as a local to achieve results that exceed their hopes and wishes, whether purchasing or selling their home. I currently serve St. Clair County, Madison County, Clinton County, and Monroe County areas.
I have several professional accomplishments, including International Award-Winning Realtor, Coldwell Banker Presidents Circle V.P., and obtaining a master’s degree in Psychology. However, my greatest accomplishment in life is my family. I chose real estate because I wanted a career that would allow me to stay close to home to help my wife of 25 years, who is a cancer survivor, raise my two teenage daughters. Real estate checked all the boxes when deciding what career would best fit my experience. When we're not visiting our oldest at college or supporting our youngest at cheerleading competitions, we spend time with our four rescued dogs, three rescued cats and a guinea pig.
Spending time outdoors is one of my favorite things to do when I am not working, whether riding my motorcycle, hiking or just taking a walk in nature. I am also an active member of two community organizations, the Illinois Patriot Guard Riders and the Ancient Order of Hibernians. As an IPGR member, it is my duty to honor those men and women who have given so much to our country to protect our freedom. And the Ancient Order of Hibernians is an Irish Catholic Organization that promotes brotherhood and community involvement. It also honors my Irish Heritage.
As a Realtor, I understand how important it is to get things done effectively and efficiently—and that's exactly how I work with my clients! My goal is to make sure you're happy with your purchase or sale every step of the way—from the moment you first contact me until we close on your new home or property together.

As a military spouse, I have experienced several significant milestones and challenges, such as navigating multiple deployments and relocations. This first-hand experience helped me develop empathy and the ability to understand the emotional and practical challenges my clients may be facing during a real estate transaction whether it may be buying, selling or trying to do both at the same time.
I have plenty of experience adhering to strict timelines while paying attention to detail, which is an invaluable asset to my clients who are looking for someone to help them navigate real estate transitions and all the related little details that we never think to ask about or put on the to-do list. My experience has allowed me the opportunity to gain skills that translate into adaptability, networking, attention to detail, and empathy.
I became an agent with Coldwell Banker Brown because I liked the people and the reputation they have. Since the beginning of Coldwell Banker the company has operated on the principles of honesty, integrity, and service.
I love helping people, getting to know more about the community I am in and sharing that knowledge to benefit others. I want to help you reach your goals and I can provide all the tools that we will need to sell your current property or find you a new home.
Outside of working as an agent, I have a wonderful husband who thinks he is the funniest person he knows, a very independent daughter who loves animals and is a maker of artsy things. We have a cat that acts like an angry teenager, a snake that hides all day long, and two dogs that are way too smart for their own good. My hobbies include, exploring new areas, backpacking (the hardcore kind that everyone seems to hate), reading and cooking interesting foods from other cultures!

I have always loved looking at homes of all different types and helping others find the perfect one for them is always my priority.
As a Broker Associate, guiding my clients through the process of buying and/or selling their home I always put their individual needs and impeccable customer service at the forefront. I never take it for granted that a home is one of the biggest purchases that a person makes.
Outside of work, I’m married with two boys and two dogs. We love Jeeping, spending time at the lake and enjoying everything the Metro East has to offer.
