Save Time and Money with a Buyer Broker and SFARMLS

SFARMLS

There are many ways you can save time and money on buying a condo when you use a buyer broker and the sfarmls.  The sfarmls is a multiple listing service that lists many properties and their asking prices for the San Francisco area.  A buyer broker is a real estate agent that works for you, the buyer, rather than the seller.  There is, believe you me, a huge difference between the two.  Together, a buyer broker and the sfarmls can save you a ton of time and money.

The buyer broker saves you time by using the sfarmls.  He or she will know exactly how to navigate through the listings to find the condos you are looking for.  This will save you a ton of time over sifting through the sfarmls on your own.  Additionally, the sfarmls saves you money when in the hands of your buyer broker.  This is because the buyer broker knows how to compare prices of homes in the neighborhood you are looking to buy into.  This knowledge allows you or the buyer broker on your behalf, to negotiate a lower price for the condo you are choosing to make an offer on.  It ensures that you are not overpaying for your condo in the slightest.

The buyer broker saves you time and money in other ways as well.  They can do all the research into the neighborhood, schools, and other conditions that surround your decision to purchase a home.  They also have intimate knowledge of mortgage companies, their qualifications and their rates, so he or she can save you a lot of time trying to shop around for the best mortgage.  Finally, buyer brokers save you a ton of money by negotiating repairs into the price of the condo, negotiating for the sellers to pay the closing costs, and getting home warranties included in the purchase price.
