I hope the slides will clear up some miscommunication and questions that are going around out there with the recent NAR headlines.

Not much has changed. Let me know if you have any questions. It’s not that scary.

Good info!

To Buyers out there considering purchasing a property without a Realtor post NAR settlement….

From the perspective of a Title/Settlement Agent, here are a few reasons why you should work with .

• A Buyer should have an advocate in their corner for one of the most important purchases you can make.
• Support with resolving permit issues. Buyer’s agents often work with the listing side to make sure open permits are cleared.
• Realtors are crucial assisting and managing the inspection process.
• As a Buyer, you will have a plethora of questions throughout the closing process and should have access to a trusted advisor working alongside your Title/Settlement Agent.
• Experienced Realtors are experts and in a lot of cases have seen it all and can guide you working alongside your Title/Settlement Agent.
• Assistance with Associations gathering Association documents early in the process, provide guidance throughout the application process, and support if an issue arises with an Association.
• The final stage of the transaction, overseeing walk-throughs.
• Agents have expert knowledge of local real estate markets. This includes inventory, pricing, local government, schools, and future development.
• Agents will negotiate on your behalf. This can range from purchase price reductions to inspection credits to lower your closing costs.
• Agents have a streamlined network of professional relationships, inspectors, appraisers, etc. All these individuals working together can avoid costly hiccups and delays in the closing process.
• Even after you close on your home, your agent is still there for you if any issues arise.
