Is it Possible to purchase from a "For Sale By Owner (FSBO) with the representation of your buyer's agent? Are there any changes with this process? Do the same guidelines and rules apply? And how do most FSBO's determine their pricing?
Absolutely. Many sellers will agree to work with an agent if that agent has a qualified buyer willing and able to purchase that property . It is important that you have a qualified RGH Realty #1 professional representing your best interests (some seller may not always have your best interest) especially if you are a First Time Buyer. The purchase process and rules will still be the same, nothing changes.
Just like viewing any other listed property with your agent, let the agent be the point of contact with the seller. This is important because not only is your buyer's agent well qualified they are also dedicated to serving your needs. In some cases, your agent will need to have the first conversation with the seller in order to be able to represent you in the purchase.
Question: Do you really save going to a FSBO?
In some cases you may save money. But In most cases, the buyer will pay the same amount as if that property were listed in the MLS or more.
The sellers will usually determine the price of their homes after meeting with a Licensed Real Estate Professional. The price is usually the same as what the real estate professional recommended as the listing price.
