Buyer?sAgentCompensation
Buyers?Agents represent the interests of the buyer. In making offers on homes buyers often request that the seller pay the Buyer?s Agent as part of the transaction Real estate broker commissions are negotiable While you are not required to compensate a Buyer?s Agent,we want to share why there are benefits to considering requests for Buyer Agent compensation as you receive offers on your property. Many buyers do not have extra funds to pay their agent?s commission on top of the down payment and closing costs,or they prefer to finance their agent?s commission and thus build it into the purchase price Remaining open to offers containing Buyer Agent compensation will therefore help make your property attractive to a wider pool of potential buyers, increasing demand and the chance that you will achieve the best price for your home
