5 Things Your Buyer's Agent Should Do For You

Buying your first home is (understandably) a rather daunting experience. How are you supposed to know how to successfully navigate all of the negotiations - or how to even begin the negotiations in the first place?

Fortunately for you, you don't have to face these challenges alone! Your real estate agent at the Lake of the Ozarks. As your personal representative, your buyer's agent will have special responsibilities and obligations to fulfill during your home buying process. You will have help every step of the way!


What Should Your Buyer's Agent Do For You?

1. Help You Discover Your Dream Home
Choosing the home you want to buy is perhaps the most exciting part of real estate at the Lake of the Ozarks. There's nothing like walking into your dream home and knowing it's "the one." Of course, walking through every home on the market to try to find that one might not as much fun. Your buyer's agent will take your wish list and use it to sort through all of the available listings to find the homes that are most likely to interest you.

2. Help You Submit An Offer
How do you know how much money to offer? Should you match the asking price? Can you get away with offering less? Or do you need to offer even more? This is a tricky question to answer, because it will depend entirely on the various circumstances surrounding the purchase, such as the condition of the market and if there are other buyers interested in the property. Your agent will be able to help you evaluate which strategy is best for your unique situation.

3. Help You Navigate The Negotiations
Submitting an offer is only the very first step of the process. When they receive your offer, the sellers will have to decide whether to accept your offer, deny it, or submit a counter-offer. After that, you get to make that same decision - accept, deny, or counter. You will be negotiating on much more than just the cost of the home; you will also have to agree on any pieces of furniture to be included in the sale, any repairs that need to be made before the home is complete, the closing date, etc. Throughout this entire process, your agent will be there to serve as your advocate.

4. Help You Consider All Of The Variables
There are a lot of things to consider when you're buying a house. Will the property meet your family's needs? Will you be able to tolerate your new commute to work? Is there a busy street just on the other side of those trees that's likely to be noisy? If/when it comes time to sell, will you be able to? These are just a few of the questions all homebuyers need to ask themselves. Your agent will be able to help you critically evaluate all of the surrounding circumstances so you can make an educated decision.

5. Protect Your Best Interests
When you're buying your first house at the Lake of the Ozarks, you have a lot on the line. Between your new mortgage and all of the pending responsibilities of homeownership, the decision to buy can be a bit overwhelming. Your agent will be there through every step of the process, from the initial home search to closing, to help you in any way you need. Even if it's something as simple as supervising the home inspector while he is at the property, your agent will be there for you every step of the way.
