How getting cheated in a Real Estate Transaction changed our life and brought Buyer Agency to Florida... In 1990, Mike and I got cheated in our first investment property purchase. In those days, every broker worked only for the seller as there was no category for buyer representation, but we were not aware of that.
The broker we were working with acted like our best friend so we naively trusted him, only to later learn that he was actually one of the owners of the property!! We ended up paying a higher price than we should have, with condo assessments and closing costs that should have been the sellers' costs, not ours.
After closing we felt deflated...we should have known better. We were shocked at how easy it was to deceive or cheat the buyer! It was not going to happen again...at least not to us.
Our desire to learn the Real Estate Game... We started our journey by obtaining a Real Estate License. I then bartered for a Brokers License, a Mortgage Broker License, and Appraising Certification.
Mike was a big shot with Eastern Airlines at the time, and I had a different business, so becoming real estate agents had never crossed our minds. We had no intention of changing careers...we just wanted to be smarter for our next investment, so that we don’t get ripped off again.
Then Eastern Airlines went bust... With two kids in college and one still at home, we decided to go into business representing the best interest of homebuyers...it sounded simple.
In 1992, Mike and I opened the first Buyer Brokerage office in South Florida. We knew buyer representation was badly needed, but we did not expect that the traditional brokers would be so determined to put us out of business.
To make things worse, homebuyers did not know we even existed so we weren't even doing any business. We survived by selling our primary residence and our extras like the horses and corvette. We moved into a one-bedroom condo in order to pay the office overhead and bills.
Meanwhile... five other Buyer Brokerage Offices opened in the area. They quickly became ostracized with false complaints, unwarranted investigations, threats, vandalism and pure hate.
Bogus Investigations... It is rare that any real estate office has even one investigation in a lifetime; we were investigated by the state 3 times in 2 years for “anonymous” broker complaints.
Not only was every piece of paper in our files scrutinized, our bank accounts were audited three times...they even called our bank to make sure that we did not have two sets of books...

you...and then some.

“How to protect your biggest investment”…more and more buyers have been asking for a “Buyers Agent” that works exclusively for them, not sellers. You can’t have partial loyalty; an agent either works for you or works for someone else".
"Only by using an Exclusive Buyers Agent can a buyer be sure that all information is kept confidential. Only an Exclusive Buyers Agent can give the buyer an objective, experienced opinion of the homes viewed to ensure the buyer gets the right home in the right location".
“Buyers Brokers are agents that Buyers can call their own. If your agent is not a buyer's broker, he works for the seller.”
“You save big bucks by hiring a Buyer Broker."
“Confide to a Traditional Real Estate Broker that you're prepared to bid as much as $XXX on a house and the broker will tip off the seller. Tell a Buyer's Broker and the seller will never know.”
"Exclusive agencies are the best. They remove any conflict of interest, which is the main reason for considering a Buyer Broker in the first place.”
“A Buyers Broker is prohibited from disclosing to a seller that the buyer can, or will, pay more than what has been offered.. to eliminate the conflict off interest, hire one"
"If you want someone to represent only your interests, consider hiring an "Exclusive Buyer's Agent" who will be working for you."
“Internationally acclaimed financial specialist recommends exclusive Buyers Agents for a home purchase.”
"Ralph Nadar again held up Exclusive Buyer Brokerage as the only legitimate options for the home buying public."
