كتير من الناس بتشتري عقار في أستراليا وتكتشف بعد كده إنها دفعت سعر أعلى من المفروض.

السبب بسيط.

وكيل البيع شغله الأساسي إنه يبيع بأعلى سعر ممكن لصالح البائع.

لكن المشتري في الغالب بيكون لوحده.

هنا بييجي دور الـ Buyer Agent.

شغلي إني أحلل السوق، أشوف الأسعار الحقيقية للعقارات اللي شبهه، وأتفاوض عشان العميل يشتري بالسعر المناسب مش أول رقم يتقال له.

في سوق العقارات… المعلومة الصح ممكن توفر عشرات الآلاف.
