Homes for Sale in Prescott Arizona
October 24th, 2006
It’s been a few years since a home buyer could come into Prescott and find the home of their dreams without having to get into a bidding war with other eager buyers. Fortunately, with the shift in the real estate market, it’s the right time to find a property that will be the home for your family.
The first step to home ownership in Prescott is to get an idea about what the market is really like today. The great thing about this is that you can view listings in your desired price range on this website in the privacy and comfort of your own home or office right now — without the need of having to create a relationship with a buyers agent in Prescott.
When you realize that you know what you’d like in terms of price and home requirements, you can create a relationship with a buyer broker. Some buyers prefer entering into an agreement with a broker who will help a home buyer get the best possible value and understanding about the house and area that they wish to transform into their home.
Keep in mind that if you are going to buy a home that is listed on the market, you want to get buyer representation. The bottomline is that if you use a real estate agent who is representing the seller, and you the buyer, the real estate agent is going to look out for the interests of the seller first, and then the buyer, second.
It’s not that the selling agent doesn’t care about you, it’s the case that as human beings it can be very difficult for the Realtor to be 100% loyal to both parties. This opens up buyers to an increase in a breach of loyalty on the part of their dual agency situation as ultimately the selling agent’s allegience is with the seller and the seller’s listing.
A real estate agent who is the agent of the seller must disclose the fact that they represent the home owner selling the property. It is the law. Once this information is disclosed you have the option to engage in a buyer broker agreement with the agent. This type of relationship, where the agent is representing both the buyer and seller is referred to as a dual agency.
If you decide to buy a home with the use of a real estate agent, make sure that you find a real estate agent that will put you — the buyer first. In most cases, getting a buyer broker will give you that benefit.
The good news is that being a buyer’s agent is really what we are all about. We haven’t been able to find another Prescott Real Estate website that shows home buyers all of the listings on a single web site that’s easy and simple for the buyer to navigate through. This is probably because the other guys really don’t understand how important it is to a home buyer to know all of the listings that meet their needs. Most agents will be happy give you this type of information once you sign an agreement with them. We on the other hand — just like our clients, prefer to window shop and study the market before choosing a buyer’s agent that is right for them.
Take a moment to view listings in your price range, if you have a question, please email us at PrescottHomes Email or give us a call. Our phone number is listed on every single page of this website.
– Good Hunting.
