Episode 162 with Miriam Sandkuhler
With real estate becoming more complex and buyers wanting to be savvier, there has been an onslaught of new buyer's advocates getting into the action. Some buyer's advocates are backed by years of experience or training as an agent, or working in the industry, while others are just jumping on the bandwagon for some 'easy cash.' Today we are going to find out how you can be savvy when you appoint a buyer's advocate.
Miriam Sandkuhler, the CEO and Founder of Property Mavens is a multi-award winning buyers agent and vendor advocate with franchised offices in Victoria, New South Wales, and Queensland. Miriam is the best-selling author of Property Prosperity and is an accredited property investment advisor. She is recognized in the real estate industry as both an innovator and thought leader, regularly asked to speak at seminars.
In this week's episode, we ask Miriam to go through some scenarios with us:
1. What is a fake buyer's agent?
2. What level of real estate experience should you expect from your buyer's advocate?
3. What should your buyer's advocate be able to do in terms of:
a. Due diligence of the property or properties?
b. Protecting the buyer?
c. Knowing the history and projected value?
d. Support you emotionally through the process?
4. Do some buyer's advocates get kickbacks from third parties?
