What Do Agents Really Bring to the Table?
| Licensed real estate professionals bring state-mandated training and knowledge to the table for buyers and sellers. In fact, agents have to get as much, or more, training than what it would take for some college degrees before being given permission by the state to represent buyers and sellers in the transaction. By the time a transaction is over, it is chock full of legally-binding documents controlling the transaction, pulling two parties together to exchange hundreds of thousands of dollars to complete a transaction that they may be involved in only a couple of times in their life. |

Nearly half of the buyers are purchasing for the first time, according to the National Association of Realtors. They only think agents are there to usher them into houses and that’s it. And that’s because hundreds of thousands of agents make that tooth extraction look so easy. Why should you have a real estate agent on your investing/buying/selling team when it comes to building wealth? There’s talk on Capitol Hill of how the real estate industry has a “strangle hold” on the business. It makes me want to, not so much defend, as much as bring to the forefront what licensed professionals actually bring to the table for consumers.
