About Exclusive Buyer Agency

Three Reasons to Hire a San Diego Exclusive Buyer Agent

1. Representation

FULL REPRESENTATION is the original reason that exclusive buyer agency became an option for home buyers (in the 1980's). Understanding how agency works is simple:

A SELLER'S AGENT represents the seller (and is obligated to work for the seller's best interests). Will a seller's agent show homes for sale to a San Diego home buyer? Most likely, yes (preferably his own listings or his brokerage's listings). Will the seller's agent represent the buyer and his/her interests, protect the buyer's confidentiality, and negotiate on the buyer's behalf? No. He cannot, because he already represents the seller.

DUAL AGENCY occurs when a San Diego real estate company represents both the buyer and seller in the same transaction. A dual agent cannot possibly represent the best interests of the buyer and the seller at the same time. How can one agent work to get the seller the highest price and best terms while also working to get the buyer the lowest price and best terms? It's impossible.

The same holds true if one hires a buyer's agent who works for a traditional brokerage. If the buyer writes an offer on one of that brokerage's listings, the brokerage is acting as a dual agent, representing both sides of the transaction. The only interest fully protected in a dual agency transaction is that of the real estate agent and his/her broker - they 'double-end' the transaction and pocket both sides of the commission.

EXCLUSIVE BUYER AGENCY is the best option for home buyers who want an agent who represents buyers only. A San Diego exclusive buyer brokerage never takes a listing and never represents a seller, eliminating the conflict of interest. Globella's San Diego exclusive buyer agents can show their clients any property for sale in San Diego, including properties listed for sale in the Sandicor MLS, unlisted properties, for-sale-by-owners, bank-owned foreclosures, short sales, etc. An exclusive buyer agent's job is to represent buyers only, and he is legally obligated to look out for the best interests of the buyer throughout the transaction.

2. Loyalty

When a Globella exclusive buyer agent commits to taking on a new client, that agent is pledging an oath of loyalty beyond the usual call of duty. Globella agents typically work with only 1-3 clients at a time in order to give each client the level of service they’ve committed to.

When you hire a Globella exclusive buyer agent, you are hiring an advisor, a teammate, and a committed partner. Your goals are our goals. Your schedule is our schedule. Your purchase is our purchase.  We are on call for you, and we work around the clock any day of the week to accommodate you throughout your entire San Diego real estate purchase.

We take extra measures to make sure we are working with qualified, motivated, and loyal buyers, which enables us to commit 100% to you and offer you the best buyer representation services in San Diego.

3. Specialization

Would you have a dentist perform your back surgery? Would you hire a diesel mechanic to fix your flat screen T.V.? Of course not. You would hire the expert that specializes in the task to be performed. Buying a home in San Diego will likely be one of the largest purchases you have ever made in your life, so it only makes sense to hire an exclusive buyer agent to help you purchase your next San Diego home.

Globella's exclusive buyer agents spend countless hours honing their buyer representation skills (such as buyer negotiation skills),  attending classes and training to become better buyer agents, formulating agreements that protect the buyer's best interests, etc.

Because we specialize in representing buyers you can rest assured that you will maximize your savings of money and time while avoiding common hassles.

Exclusive Buyer Agents do not list homes for sale and never represent sellers. They have no "inventory" to try to sell you. They can represent you in purchasing any home. They are specialists at representing buyers only on the buyers' side of the transaction. Exclusive Buyer Agents work to get buyers the best price and terms when they buy a home.
