Why Having a Buyer's Agent Is a Must
Ready to house hunt? As a buyer, you want a strong agent by your side to navigate contracts, negotiations, inspections, and whatever else comes up along the way.
Hi, I'm Tanja Odzak, Realtor with eXp Realty, helping people sell and buy homes right here in the East Bay for the last 10 years.
A buyer's agent works for you, and only you, ethically obligated to your best interest through every offer, negotiation, and inspection. They run a diligent search, tour homes on your behalf, and keep you updated on new inventory as it hits the market, all while helping you separate your must-haves from your nice-to-haves.
Negotiation is where the real value shows up, a skilled agent can save you thousands and help you sidestep repairs and pitfalls that cause stress down the road. They also know how to navigate an inspection or an appraisal that comes in short of value, another place real savings show up.
Once you agree to work together, you'll sign a Buyer Broker Agreement, making that agent your sole representative through the process.
I'm Tanja Odzak, and I've sold over $100 million worth of homes with a decade of experience in the East Bay. A knowledgeable agent pays off well beyond the transaction itself. Let's talk about inventory, pricing, and strategy in your target area.
