What is a buyers agent

Although the concept of a buyer’s agent is relatively new to the market, it is similar to the more common seller’s agent. Just as a seller’s agent represents the interests of a homeowner, a buyer’s agent represents the interests of a prospective buyer.

In simple terms, a buyer’s agent is a real estate expert who guides a buyer through the property purchase process of finding, negotiating, and buying a home. You can call them a representative of a buyer in a real estate deal. A buyer’s agent is legally bound to protect the interests of the buyer and ensures they are getting the best deal possible for the right property.

It’s simple really. Instead of dealing with the homeowner or the seller’s agent yourself, a buyer’s agent deals with him on your behalf. Think about it. If a homeowner uses an agent, why can’t you do the same as a buyer?
