A Realtor is a highly-valued asset when buying a home. They will walk you through every part of the home buying process. They will educate and inform you of all your options. They will represent you throughout the transaction and beyond.
There is a difference between a Realtor and a real estate agent; many people do not know this. A Realtor is regulated by the National Association of REALTORS® and subscribes to a strict Code of Ethics. A real estate agent does not. Therefore, it is recommended that you work with a licensed Realtor to get the best service.
