Why you should use an Accredited Buyer's Representative (ABR)

Is working with a buyers agent a good idea?

If you are in the market to buy a new home or if this is your first time buying Sedona real estate, you will want to enlist the helpful services of a buyers agent or representative. A Buyers Representative is a little more than just an agent that represents the buyer in a transaction.

A Realtor Accredited Buyers Representative is called a ABR

The ABR designation is awarded by REBAC to those REALTORS who have have met the specific educational and experiential criteria needed to provide the high level quality service required by REBAC (Real Estate BUYER'S AGENT Council). See our ABR page

What a Buyers Representative Can do For A Buyer

A Buyers Representative does more than collect a commission check at the end of a transaction. A professional buyers agents that works for the interest of Sedona real estate buyers and not specifically the seller. Our whole focus is getting our buyers exactly what they want through detailed searches, skilled negotiations and expert knowledge in the entire process.

 As your Sedona Buyers Agent we will help you search out the right home for you through online means, word of mouth on what listings are up and coming and detailed investigative searches.

  Sedona real estate buyers pay buyers representatives nothing to represent them! This is the best part. If you are a buyer, you pay nothing for the services of a buyers representative.

HOW ABR GET PAID:

  When a listing comes on the market, the agent that is representing the seller signs a contract with that seller agreeing to receive a commission for listing their property. It is also under contract that that  commission is split between the agent listing the property and the agent that sells the property. Naturally the selling agent would want to also be the buyers agent as they would receive the entire commission.  But you can see how this would affect the buyers in this case.  The selling agent would be working for the sellers in that the agent would want the deal to close since they would be receiving the entire commission. The buyers interest are really not forefront in this case. Having an agent carry both sides is somewhat risky to both parties. But typically the sellers interst come first.

 When a buyer has an agent representing them only, then the buyers can rest knowing that whatever home they choose, their agent will be receiving half of that commission from the sellers. The buyers know that no matter which home they choose, their best interest are taken into account and that agent representing them will keep all knowledge and negotiations confidential.

 Having a Sedona real estate buyers representative really makes so much sense. Why go into the real estate world not knowing all the details of a transaction and being unsure if a selling agent is taking you for a ride. Having a trusting Sedona buyers agent on your side will help you rest comfortably knowing we take all your interest and needs to heart as our own.
