If you’ve ever sold a home in New York City, you know about the listing agreement — the seller hires
a real estate broker and pays a commission for professional representation.

But here’s something NYC buyers want to realize early in the process:

If you want a broker to represent your interests, to negotiate for you, to show you opportunities you won’t find on your own, you also need to sign a buyer representation agreement.

And before you think, “Maybe I should buy without an agent so I can save money,” here’s the truth —
in almost every NYC transaction, the seller pays the commission for both brokers, including the one representing the buyer.

And even in the rare scenario where they don’t?

Having a buyer’s agent is still worth it.

Why?

To protect you from costly mistakes.

To keep you from leaving money on the table.

And most importantly — to save you time, stress, and heartache in one of the most competitive real estate markets in the world.

Honestly, one of the worst feelings is missing out on a property altogether
because the deal wasn't put together right.

There are incredible buying opportunities in NYC right now — but getting a seller to accept your
offer isn’t just about price.

It’s about terms, strategy, relationships, timing, and knowing how deals actually get done in the New York City market.

That’s what I do for my buyers.

Let me negotiate on your behalf.
