Default Re: Villages Pre-owned Home Buyers, Beware

It was always my understanding that when a home is on the market by a real estate broker, that broker/salesperson always REPRESENTS THE SELLER ONLY!!! , that is the home owner who contracted with the broker.

However, there are real estate sales persons who can represent the buyer. When I purchased my home I used the services of "my" broker, who only represented ME and my best interests, in the quest for my dream home. I found the property myself in the newspaper, but still used (and shared the commission with seller) my broker's service to do all the paperwork and guide me through the process. All went well.
