THE BENEFITS OF WORKING WITH A CO OPERATING BROKER Working with a professional buyer’s agent can provide a host of benefits you may not have considered. In partnership with a buyer’s agent, I can show your home in its best light to a widened pool of qualified buyers and ensure a more efficient contract-to-close process for everyone involved.
Increased Exposure For Your Listing More eyes means more interest. A buyer’s agent can help get your listing in front of interested buyers they are currently representing, which maximizes your home’s exposure in a competitive market. By listing as a Compass Private Exclusive, you can even pre-market your home to buyers and the agents they are working with to build early demand before launching to the public.
More Qualified Buyers Working with a buyer’s agent helps increase the likelihood that your home will be seen by qualified and vetted buyers who are educated about the market and ready to transact.
Seamless Contract-to-Close Buyer agents provide guidance, counseling, and support to buyers throughout the contract-to-close process to troubleshoot and resolve potential issues. Having dedicated agents on both sides of the deal will ensure an objective approach and increase the likelihood of a seamless transaction.
Reduced Liability & Exposure Having professional representation more readily ensures that the buyer completes their investigations to their satisfaction, thoroughly reviews and understands seller disclosures, and completes each required step. The result? A well-informed client without buyer’s remorse.
Seller acknowledges and understands that (i) commissions are negotiable, (ii) Seller is not required to offer compensation to a cooperating Broker, and (iii) any offer of compensation is at the discretion of the Seller.
THE BENEFITS OF OFFERING BU YER AGENT COMPENSATION In the United States, real estate commissions can be paid by the seller, listing agent or the buyer. Continuing the practice of offering buyer compensation by the seller or listing agent increases the likelihood of having a professional buyer’s agent on the other side of the transaction and provides you with a number of advantages. By paying commission or authorizing your listing broker to pay commission, you have potential to: Increase Interest From Qualified Buyers When you offer compensation to the buyer’s agent, the property may become more attractive to serious buyers and increase its exposure, a critical advantage in competitive markets. This also makes your home more accessible to a wider pool of buyers, some of whom might have limited cash for upfront costs. Secure a Higher Purchase Price If buyers don’t need to reserve funds for commission, they may be able to offer a higher purchase price. Sell Faster Removing the financial burden on buyers can help reduce the time your property is on the market. Seller acknowledges and understands that (i) commissions are negotiable, (ii) Seller is not required to offer compensation to a cooperating Broker, and (iii) any offer of compensation is at the discretion of the Seller.
Simplify Negotiations With commission costs off the table, negotiations are less complex, allowing all parties to stay focused on the property’s price, which streamlines the negotiation.
