Buyer Resources

Listed below you will find links to useful and helpful resources for the Do It Yourself home buyer. Although we believe you will best be served by engaging a non biased industry professional (read Flat Fee Realty) to assist you with the transaction, we realize there are some who prefer to go it alone. Please remember that when viewing property listed by a broker, it is very likely that broker has an exclusive agency relationship with the seller and owes them a fiduciary responsibility as their client. That same broker cannot also represent you as a client but can represent you as a customer which places you in a disadvantaged situation. Although some brokers look for opportunities to earn “both sides” of the commission (listing and selling), one broker cannot effectively serve two masters. However, if you find a house that is FSBO that you like, it is possible for you to save some money when you purchase that house if no brokers are involved. However, we still want you to be equipped and prepared to make a valid and legitimate offer as well as protect yourself legally as best as possible. To that end, we have included some information below that should be beneficial to you. Should you have a favorite link that you believe others would find helpful, please tell us about it by Clicking Here. Please consider our Buyer Consulting Package that will help you understand the sales transaction process, provide you with a customized ongoing search of listed houses, and provide you with a sales offer and contract review when the time is appropriate.
