Step 2: Sign Buyer Agreement

Welcome back to our Buyer's Series! In this step, we’re focusing on signing the Buyer Agreement, an important milestone that helps kick off your home buying journey with confidence and clarity.

Once you've aligned with your agent, it's time to formalize the relationship. The Buyer Agreement outlines how your Real Estate Sales Associate will represent you, including compensation and responsibilities. Signing this agreement ensures you have a dedicated advocate throughout the process. It also includes necessary disclosures and sets the tone for a professional, transparent partnership. With this agreement in place, your agent becomes your single point of contact streamlining communication and accountability.
