Representation for purchasers
Buyer Representation for Exeter Home Shoppers
A home found at a sound price and on a workable schedule, with someone negotiating solely on your behalf.
Representation That Belongs Only to You
When you purchase a home, the seller's agent is working to secure the best terms for the seller, which is exactly as it should be. You deserve the same commitment on your side of the table. Real Estate Agent Exeter represents buyers, and the work begins with two questions: what you can comfortably afford, and when you need to be in the home. With a lender pre-approval in hand and a target move date agreed, the search can be planned sensibly, focused on homes that suit your budget, your needs and your schedule rather than on every listing that appears. When a promising home turns up, recent comparable sales are reviewed before an offer is suggested, and the offer itself is written with contingencies that protect your deposit while still giving the seller good reason to accept. After acceptance, the inspection, appraisal, financing and seller disclosures are followed on their deadlines, and any repair or credit request is negotiated with care. Before touring together, a written buyer agreement describing our duties and compensation is signed, and we review each provision with you first.
