Buyers as clients
With the increase in the practice of buyer brokerage in the US, especially
since the late 1990s in most states, agents (acting under their brokers)
have been able to represent buyers in the transaction with a written
"Buyer Agency Agreement" not unlike the "Listing Agreement" for sellers
referred to above. In this case, buyers are clients of the brokerage.
Some real estate brokerages choose only to represent buyers in an
exclusive buyer's agency relationship and do not take "listings" from
sellers.
A real estate brokerage attempts to do the following for the buyers of
real estate only when they represent the buyers with some form of written
buyer-brokerage agreement:
Find real estate in accordance with the buyers needs, specifications, and
cost.
Takes buyers to and shows them properties available for sale.
When deemed appropriate, prescreens buyers to ensure they are financially
qualified to buy the properties shown (or uses a mortgage professional to
do that task).
Negotiates price and terms on behalf of the buyers and prepares standard
real estate purchase contract by filling in the blanks in the contract
form. The buyer's agent acts as a fiduciary for the buyer.
Due to the importance of the role of representing buyers' interests, many
brokers who seek to play the role of client advocate are now seeking out
the services of Certified Mortgage Planners, industry experts that work in
concert with Certified Financial Planners to align consumers' home finance
positions with their larger financial portfolio(s).

Buyers as customers
In most states, until the 1990s, buyers who worked with an agent of a
real estate broker in finding a house were customers of the brokerage,
since the broker represented only sellers.
Today, state laws differ. Buyers and/or sellers may be represented.
Typically, a written "Buyer Brokerage" agreement is required for the
buyer to have representation (regardless of which party is paying the
commission), although by his/her actions, an agent can create
representation.
Find real estate in accordance with the buyers’ needs, specifications,
and affordability.
Take buyers to and shows them properties available for sale.
When deemed appropriate, prescreen buyers to ensure they are
financially qualified to buy the properties shown (or uses a mortgage
professional to do that task).
Assist the buyer in making an offer for the property. |
