Asking a real estate agent whether you should buy a home right now is like to asking an alcoholic whether they think you should have a drink lol. Homes in my neighborhood that cost around $450k in sales in 2019 are now going for $800 to $950k. Every seller in my neighborhood is currently making a $350k profit. Simply unreal. In all honesty, deflation is what we require. The only other option is for many people to go bankrupt, which would also be bad for the economy. That is the only way to return to normal.

Stop selling the need for a buyers agent. Its not rocket sience. You need a good home inspector, an attorney to review the usual standard contract, and a good closing agent. The negotiations is the key to a good deal. The key is to be informed of the neighborhood prices and not to be afraid to make a low offer and work from there. Ive closed on homes that I have done most of the work and the realtor just collected his commission. I set up the inspector, kept in communication with the closing agent, picked up on errors on the closing statement that the realtor didn't, and frankly, I will never use a realtor again.

I've used a buyer's agent both times I have purchased, and I would not do it without one. Two different agents, answering the questions I did not know enough to even ask. LP siding? Lead paint? Rentback agreement because of an undisclosed lien needing to be cleared? (Which would have left us homeless for 10 days and nowhere to move our stuff.) Absolutely saved us.

I buy and sell property for a living. I would never tie myself down with an exclusive buyers agency agreement, I want the right to buy someone’s pocket listing or directly from the owner if I want. I always do all the research anyway, a realtor has never found a property for me, they just write up the contracts like car salesmen.

I had a buyers agent. He recommended an inspector that completely failed. Ignored the broken window seal. Missed major problem with furnace, garage doors, toilets and a lot more. Ignored the problems and pretended house was fine.

You are an agent who truly works for her clients. When I bought my home years ago, my buyer broker did not warn me about things I did not know about my neighbor hood, and I’m sure she did. (If I had grown up here, I would have known, its common knowledge to locals). Specifically, sewer pipe issues and tree roots in the neighborhood. At the time of my first problem, the sewer company said “oh yeah, that neighborhood is our bread & butter”😡. I wish I had known. I would have paid for additional inspections of the line for credits back.

Audra, you’re a sophisticated, tier 1 RE agent. The problem is, majority are not on your level and that’s where that thought process comes in to place with some people. However I agree it’s always good to have proper representation from skilled, professionals, such as yourself.

Great vid!

I'm a home inspector. I shared one of your videos out to my Facebook followers. I hope it helps.

I'm a former Realtor, listing agent...I am meeting with an agent on Saturday! I don't care if people used to be an agent, I sold homes in Washington, I moved to Minnesota and am buying an old rural property. I know I need help. The agent I'm meeting has a degree in engineering and electrical...exactly what I need. Hoping he is a good choice, 👍

It would be great if every realtor was as passionate as you are in your profession. Sadly that's not the case. My first realtor was just like you but she moved out of state.

[MDJSTVFL]

Love the channel, I love how you tell it straight!!

[kaystinebrink]

Great program. I'm learning so much.

[jsmum]

Love your videos. They are super informative and helpful. I followed your staging advise and got 2 offers. Buyers saying they love every single thing about the property and it's their "dream house". Thank you again! It really makes a difference. YOU are a real agent. So few of you out there.

[bobjeffrey]

You had alot of good points... YES, there's at least 20% of Agts that are worthless part-timers

[citrine]

Thank you for all your informative videos. I look forward to watching more of them.
Could you give some advice on selling a house with a reverse mortgage?

[BobbieJeanM]

Lots of good information that I greatly appreciate! I bought my first house 20 years ago at the age of 50 and I now want to sell and downsize. You have addressed many of my thoughts and concerns in this and other videos I have been watching. Because my experience when I bought this house was not a good one, I was considering selling this house myself and have been looking online for a different property. I still haven’t decided what I will do, but the more information I have, hopefully, the better choice I will make. And the problems were because of my agent and seller’s agent. I live in a rural area and the well was involved, something every agent in this area should be knowledgeable about but neither seemed to be. Ya’ live and learn, sometimes the expensive way.

Audra - another great video that really helps educate both Buyers and Sellers! Thank you!

[mikefults]

More helpful information as usual. Great video.

[PepperGuru]

You’d be the only buyer agent I’ve seen in the last 4 years that were advising your clients not to offer over a certain amount. Every buyers agent I’ve tried has seemed like they were more the sellers second agent! 😂
