Act as an expert guide
A knowledgeable real estate agent will know what's required in your market, helping you avoid delays and costly mistakes.
Reasons to Work With a REALTOR®
When you're buying a home, here's what an agent who's a REALTOR® can do for you.
Offer objective information and opinions
A great real estate agent will guide you through the home search with an unbiased eye, helping you meet your buying objectives while staying within your budget.
Give you expanded search power
Using a cooperative system called the multiple listing service, your agent can help you evaluate all active listings that meet your criteria, alert you to listings, and provide data on recent sales.
Ensure an up-to-date experience
Even if you’ve bought a home before, laws and regulations change. Real estate practitioners may handle hundreds or thousands of transactions over the course of their careers.
Be your rock during emotional moments
Having a concerned, but objective, third party helps you stay focused on the issues most important to you when emotions threaten to sink an otherwise sound transaction.
Provide fair and ethical treatment
Every member must adhere to the REALTOR® Code of Ethics, which is based on professionalism, serving the interests of clients, and protecting the public.
