THE LISTING AGENT DOESN’T WORK FOR YOU.
In South Carolina, it is against the law for an agent to represent both the buyer and seller in the same transaction as a fiduciary (with loyalty and confidentiality). So, as a buyer, when you choose to work directly with a listing agent, you should know that agent has a legal responsibility to represent the best financial interests of the seller alone. It’s often likened with being the defendant in a court case and asking the prosecutor to represent your side too.
Having your own agent protects your best interests and ensures an honest, rewarding buying and negotiating experience. When you work with Matt as your buyer’s agent, you have someone by your side every step of the way who can easily anticipate and identify potential problems and provide quick, reasoned solutions.
