Lesson 1
Choosing Your Agent
My job isn’t to “sell” you a house — it’s to guide and protect you like family.
Overview
Choosing the right real estate agent is the very first (and most important) step in your home buying journey. An experienced agent isn’t just here to unlock doors — they act as your guide, advocate, and problem-solver through a complicated process.
The right agent will save you time, protect you from costly mistakes, and give you confidence when it comes to making major decisions.
Behind the Scenes
- I coordinate with lenders, attorneys, inspectors, and the listing agent so you don’t have to chase down details.
- I monitor contract deadlines, negotiate terms, and handle unexpected issues that come up (and they almost always do).
- I keep an eye on market trends so you know whether a home is priced fairly — and how aggressive we may need to be.
Key Points
- I’ll explain each step in plain English so you always know what’s happening.
- I’ll set up alerts so we know the moment new homes that fit your criteria hit the market.
- My job is to guide you, protect you, and keep you from making expensive mistakes.
Many buyers don’t realize that working with an agent is almost always free to them — in most cases, the seller pays the buyer agent’s commission. (It’s negotiated in our offer.) You can always talk to me more about this.
Important Note: Real estate processes, timelines, and responsibilities can vary by state, loan type, and individual contract. This lesson provides general guidance only. Your specific transaction will always be governed by your state laws and the terms of your contract. Talk with your agent to understand how the process applies to your situation.
