Buyer Agent 101

The ABR designation is a way to set yourself apart from your competition and win more clients.

Ah, love letters.

A strong seller’s market is a lot like dealing with the craziness of this pandemic. You never know what to expect day to day. Listing agents are flying high with attention on their listings. But, of course, buyer’s agents are always frustrated with the amount of work they are putting in only to get shot down and have to repeat the process over and over again.

I have something to confess here. I’m cheap. Not frugal, not careful with money. Cheap. I spend hours researching almost every purchase big and small and can rattle off minute details that affect the price of leather sofas, suits, guitars...you name it. I don’t just want a good deal, I want a GREAT deal. I’m a salesperson’s worst nightmare. If you’re a buyer’s agent you probably meet people like me 20x a day.

The recent seller’s market has given rise to more and more multiple offer situations, and in many cases, out and out bidding wars.
