[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unrepresented buyers are a nightmare. Most sellers would prefer to work with a buyers agent who will get the deal to the closing table. [/quote]Yes I posted above. I would take a lower offer from a represented buyer over an unrepped higher offer.[/quote]

Are you the seller or the seller’s agent? Because if an unrepped buyer means the seller nets an extra 3%, that seems worth it. [/quote]

No, because unrepped buyers expect a discount for not being repped. [/quote]

It can work out better for both the buyer and seller. The buyer gets the house for a little less and the seller nets more by not paying the seller concession for a buyer's agent. It's a win-win for everyone except realtors.[/quote]

If I am a seller, I am not offering a buyer a discount for not having an agent. Why would I willingly accept less for my property? If anything, I would want a risk premium since an unrepresented buyer is more likely to be difficult to deal with and less likely to make it to the settlement table. Especially if they have this weird, combative attitude about agents in general. That already tells me they’re too emotional and the transaction might not go smoothly. [/quote]
