I offer Buyer Agency Representation to give you advantages in the home buying process when working under an "Exclusive Right to Represent Buyer Contract":

• Advocacy
  I will advocate for your best interests throughout your home search and negotiations, working to help you reach the best price and terms.
• Confidentiality
  I will keep your bargaining position confidential in all negotiations, including your motivation or willingness to pay more than your contract proposal.
• Advice & Counsel
  I will use my professional knowledge and experience to guide you throughout the home-buying process. I will help you understand the advantages and disadvantages of houses that you consider purchasing, so that you can make a balanced decision.
• Seller Information
  I will relay to you any information that I have learned independently about the seller or the seller's position that may enhance your bargaining position.(In dual agency situations, confidentiality must be maintained for both clients. *See below.)
• Mortgage Financing
  I will help you explore real estate financing options, and provide you with detailed financing and mortgage qualifying information to guide you in choosing how to finance your house.
• Best Price
  I will negotiate with the goal of getting you the best possible price on the home of your choice.
• Home Market Analysis
  I will research recent sales of real estate similar to the home of your choice to determine if the asking price is low, average, or high. I will advise you of my opinion of value to help you decide what you are willing to offer.

*Limitations of dual agency
Occasionally while working as a buyer's agent, the buyer may choose a home in North Dakota for which I am also the listing agent, or a home in Minnesota which is listed by my brokerage. This creates dual agency. When dual agency occurs, I owe equal duties to both seller and buyer. Please see my page on TYPES OF AGENCY RELATIONSHIPS for a state mandated disclosure about agency limitations for each type of real estate agency representation.
