Straight answers to the questions buyers ask us most, on fees, off-market access, due diligence and how a property acquisition actually runs from brief to settlement.
Is a Buyer's Agent Worth It?
The fee is easy to see. The value is harder to measure — until you look at what a buyer's agent is actually being paid to do.
