As someone purchasing their very first home, you’ll need the services of a professional, experienced real estate agent. This will make a huge difference. A real estate agent will find you a house that suits exactly what you want, and they can make the complex process of buying a home enjoyable. If you want to find a real estate agent in the Denver area, research online and invest some time if you want to find a source that’s professional. With this investment of effort, the home buying process will go much more smoothly.

Prior to beginning your search, you’ll need to understand this home buying process, and learn more about it. With a detailed understanding of how this all works, you won’t have to rely completely on your real estate agent for interpretation in these matters. This knowledge will also lend itself to understanding whether or not your real estate agent is honest and qualified to work with you. There are many internet resources available to educate yourself about the home buying process, whether you’re just looking in the area of Denver, Colorado, or you’re looking elsewhere for a new home.

Because real estate agents are involved in local real estate every day, they’ll have information and connections that you don’t, so it’s important to hire one for this reason. A real estate agent can find a home that’s configured to your needs immediately, and can take you to any house you’re interested in. If you’re looking for a real estate agent in Denver or any other area, find someone who is very familiar with the location you’re looking to purchase in.

It’s very beneficial to work with a real estate agent who has a deep understanding of Denver’s real estate history, as well as the current values for local properties. Their knowledge and experience should help you, the buyer, find the best possible deal. As you’re purchasing a new home, it’s crucial for real estate agents in Denver to work within your expectations and budget. The agent needs to know how to act on an offer which is profitable. This experience and knowledge will come with a good real estate agent, and can save you both money and time when shopping in Denver for a house.

If you’re confused about how to find a great real estate deal in Denver, a real estate agent is available to answer all of these questions for you. Prior to committing to any real estate agent, ask them how long they’ve been involved with the real estate in the area, as well as the industry. It’s also perfectly acceptable to ask them more pointed questions regarding their real estate experience overall. Find out how many sales they’ve recently facilitated for a better understanding of where they stand in the local market.

Why Should You Hire A Realtor? It’s a great question. It’s one I get all the time. Especially if we’ve just met, or you haven’t been through the process before or perhaps you had a really bad experience with somebody when you bought your last home or investment property. These are all valid questions and I think you deserve an explanation and you’re going to need to investigate the benefits of hiring a Realtor before you do.

In Colorado we have 2 types of relationships with Realtors as a buyer.

• You can either have a buyer’s agent

• or just a transaction broker.

If you don’t sign a Buyers Listing Agreement or a Buyers Agency Agreement then I’m just a transaction broker. If you do sign an agreement with us then we’re a buyer’s agent.

Here’s the difference:

• An agent’s going to be in your corner giving you advice and fighting for you every step of the way.

• A transaction broker is just going to do what you tell them to do.

Now, if you don’t know what to tell them to do, then how effective can that really be? Let me give you another example. I’m going to use a football analogy. In football, there’s 2 key positions on the field during a game. One is a coach and another one is a referee. As a buyer’s agent, I’m going to be your coach.

• I’m going to be on your sidelines rooting for you,
• sending you the plays,
• giving you advice,
• telling you what you should offer on a home,
• what kind of terms we should negotiate.
• I’m going to be working with your lender to make sure we get the best deal,
• I’m going to make darn sure that you do get the best deal (and that you feel comfortable with it),

and importantly, along the way,

• I’m going to make sure that we don’t hit any speed bumps and that we get everything taken care of (to get the contract closed).
• I’m going to give you advice on inspection items,
• what we want to ask the seller to fix for you (if we find anything broken during the inspections).
• What kind of inspections should you get? (Boy, there’s a huge list of those!) Wouldn’t you want the advice on that to make sure you don’t miss anything?

That’s what an agent does. I’m like a coach, rooting for you, making sure that we win.

On the other hand, if you don’t hire an agent, and someone’s just working as a transaction broker for you, then, that’s more like a referee. All we’re doing is making sure everybody plays fair and that the game starts and ends on time. So, which would you rather have? Someone fighting for you, or someone just watching the plays? If you don’t know what to ask the referee, then are you sure they’re calling the game in your favor and not in the opponents favor?

So, give it some thought and think about it. I can explain more in detail and give you the questions to ask when you interview a Realtor during our free 1-hour consultation for buyers. Just give me a call at 303-526-2606 or email me Sam [at] SamWilsonGroup.com In the meantime, take a look at the homes out there, search like a Realtor does, on www.EasyDenverHomeSearch.com
