Leading Surrey Buying Agents, Surrey HomeSearch, outline the top 5 reasons you should use a Buying Agent for your next move.
1. Using a Buying Agent will save you time: Searching for a property is extremely time consuming, which is often hard to juggle with everyday life. A dedicated Buying Agent will put the time into your search so that you don't have to. Your Buying Agent will spend hours checking in with the local agents, researching potential properties, viewing on your behalf, feeding back, doing due dilligence and price comparisons to ensure that you don't have to. It is literally a full time job!
2. Using a Buying Agent will give you access to off-market and pre-market properties: You'll have access to properties that you wouldn't have known about without a local buying agent. It is simply not enough to keep an eye on Rightmove or other online property search portals and wait for the right property to pop up. Many properties will be under offer by the time they make it online - and without a buying agent, you will never see the proeprties that the agents are keeping “quiet” or marketing “discreetly”.
3. Using a Buying Agent will strengthen your position: Working with a buying agent like Surrey HomeSearch will signal to an agent that you are serious about your home search. Your buying agent will have done all checks prior to instruction to ensure that the agent and vendor are confident that you are a serious buyer. Understanding what motivates the vendor, your buying agent will be able to put you forward in the best possible light.
4. Using a Buying Agent will save you money: As experienced negotiators, your buying agent will work to secure the property at the best possible price for you the buyer - often saving you thousands.
5. Using a Buying Agent will provide you with expert local knowledge and contacts: The local knowledge and networks of a buying agent are invaluable. A buying agent will know the areas that will work best for you - ensuring that the property you purchase really is your perfect home.
