Whether you're a first-time homebuyer, relocating, or investing, you'll find the insights you need to make confident, informed decisions.
Fantasic question. Yes, a representation agreement does need to be signed in order to view homes. Most of our clients will sign an agreement until the end of the calendar year once they know we are the right fit for them. We do have a second representation agreement that is valid for a single showing. We find most people end up signing the long-term agreement afterwards.
Yes, it is, and it's a national law as of August 2024. Many agents are choosing to ignore this. However, we elect to follow the rules. These agreements are meant to add transparency to you, the buyer, by knowing what services are being offered and what you can expect AND know the fee associated with said services.
There is no specific “set fee” or common commission structure amongst brokers in our area. Different offices charge different fees. It is up to each company’s broker to set their fees for marketing, realty services, and expertise.
YES! There are many, many....many steps to building a home and something will be missed. We at Elite Realty Partners will always recommend a home inspection when purchasing a home.
