There are a lot of agents that work as buyer agents in the Greater Boston area, however there are very few Exclusive Buyer Agents.
Exclusive Buyer Agents that work for Exclusively Buyer Real Estate firms, such as Buyer Agents of Boston, represent the best and most consumer friendly way to make sure that the buyer's interests are always the primary focus and the transaction is being conducted at "arms-length" from the influences of other agents.
Buyers can easily get confused because when they start their search they think that all agents are the same and that all real estate offices are alike. It is often times too late until they realize that the agent and office that they hired may not be working in their best interest 100% of the time. They realize how information can easily get dispersed within an office where there are listing brokers representing sellers and buyer agents representing buyers (a/k/a - dual agency real estate firms that take listings as well as represent buyers).
Before you hire an agent, make sure you know who they are going to be working for and who their company is going to be working for.
