Why do I need a buyer's agent — I can go direct to the listing agent

"The listing agent legally represents the seller — they're already taken. If you walk in solo, you have no one in your corner."

"Have you ever negotiated a $500K purchase without having your own expert in the room? The other side definitely has one."

"Going direct to the listing agent is like going to court without your own lawyer. The other side will be represented — you won't be."

"As a buyer, you don't pay the buyer's agent — the seller does. So you get professional representation for free. That's not a deal to pass up."
