For the buyer, the question does not really arise. The seller pays the broker’s commission (which he shares with the broker dealer). So why go without? Thanks to their database (the file MLS), each broker has access to all properties listed with all brokerages (which excludes direct sales). The broker will search for you taking into account criteria such as property type, price and the sector in order to quickly obtain complete records of properties to visit. His advice will be useful in the tender offer and negotiation. In addition, his discerning eye is useful to judge less emotional on the property visit. Due to the current price of houses, a real estate broker will present a bill in the five figures.
The adviser should give you your money while taking hand assessment of the property, preparing your home before visiting the market (good pictures on the website of the broker, it helps sell), guided tours or free screening of buyers (he dismisses the nosy and those who have not really afford to buy your property), negotiation, administrative formalities relating to offers to purchase (including time to pay) and sometimes a warranty program to the buyer may cover certain claims. It should even accompany you to the notary! Brokers do not all work the same way. Find out before you sign, if you do not want to end up with half the work for the price of a full commission.
