A Buyer's Agent is Indispensable
Touring several properties today in Sarasota with out of town buyers presented a perfect case study in how an experienced buyer's agent is indispensable.
Despite the variety of real estate sites and online tools to assist buyers, nothing replaces the local knowledge of a Realtor. The buyers I was with today had a good general knowledge of the area and selected a few properties to tour. I threw in a few suggestions, based on experience, to the tour list for properties in communities the buyers were not aware of.
It's one thing to look at photos, square footage, and price, from a website, but this alone does not convey the "feel" of the community. The customers I was with today were very satisfied that the property suggestions I had made resulted in an afternoon well spent.
