What Do Real Estate Agents Do?

In the intricate world of real estate, agents serve as navigators, guiding you through the vast landscape of home buying and selling. At Impact Mortgage Group, we believe in empowering you with knowledge to better understand your real estate journey. Let's delve into what a real estate agent does and how they can be your ally in this process.

Helping you all the way

Role of a Real Estate Agent

Real estate agents are licensed professionals who represent buyers and sellers in real estate transactions. They perform a variety of duties, depending on who they represent.

Real Estate Agents for Buyers

For buyers, agents are explorers, hunting for homes that match your wishlist. They analyze market trends and property values, schedule showings, and negotiate with sellers to secure the best possible price. They're your advocate, ensuring that your interests are at the forefront of every decision.

Real Estate Agents for Sellers

For sellers, agents are skilled marketers and negotiators. They help determine a fair market price for your property, stage your home for appeal, list it on multiple platforms, and negotiate with potential buyers. Their objective is to sell your property promptly and at the highest possible price.

“They were top notch from start to finish. Their communication and responsiveness to questions was always very prompt and professional.”

Real Estate Agents vs. Brokers

While both agents and brokers are licensed to help with real estate transactions, there are key differences. Brokers have more advanced qualifications and are legally responsible for the transactions they handle. They can work independently or have other agents working for them. Agents, on the other hand, must work under a licensed broker.

Coordinating Between the Seller and Buyer

Real estate agents are invaluable in facilitating communication between buyers and sellers. They handle offers and counteroffers, arrange necessary paperwork, and coordinate with other professionals involved in the transaction such as home inspectors, appraisers, and mortgage lenders. They're the conductors of the real estate symphony, ensuring everything plays in harmony.
