• Understand your specific needs and wants, and locate appropriate properties.
• Assist you in determining how much you can afford (pre-qualify your mortgage).
• Preview and/or accompany you in viewing properties.
• Research properties, to identify any problems or issues you should consider.
• Advise you in formulating your offer.
• Help you develop your negotiation strategy.
• Negotiate effectively on your behalf.
• Provide a list of potential qualified vendors (such as inspectors, attorneys, lenders, etc.) for other related services that may be needed.
• Keep track of all the details throughout the entire transaction—to closing and beyond.
