Beware of Two Faced “Buyer’s Agents”

Unscrupulous Buyers AgentWith the recent news about the mortgage meltdown in many parts of the country, many are left scratching their heads wondering what went wrong in the housing market. Unfortunately in many cases, unscrupulous industry “professionals” are to blame.

There have been an unsettling number of cases where a “buyer’s agent” turned out to be in cahoots with the seller’s agent, and not truly on the side of the buyer at all. Together, buyer and seller agents will collaborate on an inflated price and make a nice profit while the buyer struggles with an over-inflated payment.

When choosing a buyer’s agent, make sure to do your homework. Check with the BBB for any record of similar complaints and talk with past clients about their experience with the buyer’s agent.
