Homebuyers #1 Problem in Today's Market

The number one problem home buyers are facing is navigating the changing landscape of real estate commissions due to the new NAR (National Association of Realtors) rules, particularly the shift in how buyer’s agents are compensated. Historically, listing agents shared a portion of their commission with the buyer’s agent, but now buyers may be expected to negotiate or pay their agent's commission directly. This adds an extra financial burden and complexity for buyers. The best solution when choosing the Kim and Dave Luxury Team is their unique ability to craft offers that negotiate fees seamlessly into the deal. Kim and Dave excel in structuring creative offers that may roll agent fees into the overall purchase price or get sellers to contribute, making the process more affordable for buyers.
