In the majority of cases the seller will be represented by an agent. Wouldn't you want to have complete and fair representation to the real estate transaction?

The real estate Buyer Agent is responsible to protect their Clients' best interests. Research by the National Association of Realtors has shown that when a Buyer Agent is used, the prospective Buyer found their home one week faster and examined three more properties that those consumers who did not use a Buyers Agent. Research has also been substantiated that those same prospective Buyers saved a considerable amount of money regarding the final sales price and closing costs largely due to the knowledge and negotiating skills of the Buyers Agent employed on their behalf.
