- Buyers often prefer working with brokers due to their busy schedules and the need for expert advice and research to find the best properties.
- Buyers tend to seek listings at reputable firms for a sense of trust and accountability, and recognized brands like Compass are highly regarded in the industry.
- Buyers may feel uncomfortable viewing a property when the seller is present, as they prefer to visualize the space on their own and may be hesitant to express their opinions if the owner is emotionally attached.
- Buyers' financials are important for qualification, but they may be hesitant to disclose this information directly to a seller, causing difficulty in the negotiation process.
- In a competitive market like New York City, constant follow-up is crucial for a seller's agent to ensure a smooth transaction, especially with condos and co-ops. Managing communication with various parties such as the seller, buyer, attorneys, managing agents, and co-op/condo boards is a significant part of the process. It's important to keep everyone informed and on the same page to avoid any delays or misunderstandings that could potentially derail the transaction. Consistent and proactive communication can help build trust and keep the transaction on track, ultimately benefiting both the seller and the buyer.
