Very Satisfied
"Whether personal or investment property, we never make a real estate move without Susan. Buying several investment properties in the last few years, we looked to her for advice on where our money would make the most return and we've been very satisfied with the results. Our daughter needed an agent to market her condo in Baton Rouge, and we called Susan. It sold quickly and at asking price. Susan will be our ‘family agent’ from now on."

About Appraisals >Best Interests of the Buyer
Who represents the homebuyer in the transaction? The most common scenario is for homebuyers to purchase a home with the help of the seller's listing agent. In this case, known as "dual agent representation," the real estate agent assists both the sellers and the buyers. However, it is also possible for the buyers to ask another realtor to represent their interests exclusively, acting as the "buyer's agent," a service which is available at no additional cost to the homebuyer.
Any licensed real estate agent can act as your buyer's agent, helping you to locate and look at properties in your price range. However, if that real estate agent works for the same brokerage that is listing a particular property, dual agency or designated agent rules will then apply. The buyer's agent will advise the buyer if issues arise such as termite damage or significant material defects appearing on the home inspection report. If the home appraisal comes in at less than the asking price, the agent will represent the buyer's interest, working with the seller and the lender to negotiate a satisfactory resolution.
