You made me look the subject up. Wow. I had no idea. Very interesting!

I personally preferred a MLS buyer's agent that looks out for the buyer's interest. Most people prefer to have both agents, VLS and MLS.

I used Linda Sears and John Mello, MLS agents, 352.205.0713. Very knowledgeable and thorough. They helped negotiate a fair price for the home I bought.

Don't forget that any home you would buy will need to be modified to your own taste. Make a list of "must haves" and "would like to have" for the home you are purchasing.

BTW - Most sellers thinks their home is worth what they are asking. All VLS agents try to get the seller to list their house at a fair price. All new homes don't have a negotiated price. It is what it is!
