The Risk of Buying a Home Without Your Own Agent

Can you buy a home by going directly to the listing agent? In some cases, yes.

But should you?

In this clip, Chris Chudacoff asks Brenna Van Hoogenstyn why buyers need their own representation, especially when purchasing what may be the largest asset of their life. Brenna explains the risk of dual representation, why buyers may not realize how many disclosures, inspections, reports, and legal details are involved, and why saving money up front may not protect you long term.

If you are preparing to buy a home in this current housing market, this is a helpful reminder: the right professional can help protect you from expensive mistakes.
