Step 2: Buyer Agency Agreements – Exclusive Right of Representation
Because of the high level of service The Camperelli Group provides, and to ensure that our clients continue to receive such service, as the Buyer Specialist we can only actively work with a certain number of clients at any given time. In order for us to best serve all our clients' needs and interests, we ask that each prospective client agree to work with our team exclusively. For the protection of all parties, a “Buyer’s Agency Agreement” specifies what the Buyer and Broker agree to do.
Among other things, we will:
• Strive to locate the best home available to meet your needs and desires
• Exercise skill, care and professionalism in all aspects of the transaction
• Provide pertinent information as requested by you for desired properties
• Assist in making an objective evaluation of properties
• Provide price information on homes
• Keep you fully informed during all phases of the transaction
We ask that you:
• Promptly inform other real estate professionals, owners and builders of this relationship
• Contact me first on all properties that you might be interested in
• Provide candid feedback on properties to assist me in better serving your needs and desires
• Provide pertinent information, as needed, to expedite the transaction
• Keep us fully informed during all stages of the transaction
Here are some Do’s and Don’ts for being out and about:
Ads, Signs or FSBO’s
• DO write down as much information as possible, or save the ad
• DO call us for information so we can get details for you
• DON’T call the owner’s agent or owner or approach the owner if you drive by Open Houses
• DO disclose immediately that you are represented by The Camperelli Group
• DO immediately present our business card to the agent or owner. Tell them you are exclusively represented by us. If they require you to be accompanied by a member of our team-
• DON’T view the home, but call your buyer's agent immediately to set an appointment
• DON’T disclose any information regarding your needs, motivation, likes or dislikes. These disclosures could weaken your negotiating strength
New Homes
• DO disclose immediately that you are represented by The Camperelli Group
• DO immediately present our business card to the agent or builder. Tell them you are exclusively represented by us. If they require you to be accompanied by us,
• DON’T view any of their homes, but call us immediately to set an appointment. If they do not require you to be accompanied by us, register with them with us as your agents
• DON’T enter the sales office if there is a sign requiring your agent to be with you. Call your buyer's agent to show you the properties.
These suggestions are for your protection. The buyer agency agreement, once signed by you becomes a valid, legal contract. For this reason, it is important to understand what is written on the agreement. We would be happy to provide you with a sample Buyer's Agency Agreement.
