About Buyer’s View
Buyer’s View is not a real estate company. What we do is offer a unique and better way for selling real estate agents and all buyer agents a faster and less expensive way to consummate the purchase of a home. Learn more about how Buyer’s View works.
Buyer’s View gives ALL Buyer Agents from ANY real estate company an online vehicle/platform to feature their homebuyer clients anonymously, along with their housing requirements, so that anyone that presently has a house for sale or maybe thinking of selling their home soon will be able to review this list of all homebuyers. Now sellers and their agents can take a more proactive role in “MATCHING” their properties with qualified buyers on the Buyer’s View website.
The Problem Buyer’s View Solves
Buyers cannot see new listings until they are entered into the MLS. With Buyer’s View, the Listing Agent will be able to “match” their new listing with a qualified buyer on the Buyer’s View website immediately. Homebuyers working with a buyer’s agent that has posted their housing criteria on the Buyer’s View website will now “SEE THE BEST DEALS FIRST™”.
Buyer’s View for Buyers & Buyer’s Agents
Homebuyers do not have ready access to FSBOs (for sale by owners). Now FSBOs can see the available pool of qualified buyers in their local housing market. These homebuyers, represented by a licensed buyer’s agent, will now see their exposure to homes not listed in the MLS increased dramatically. Find an agent now.
Buyer’s View for Lenders
It is very important for the home buying consumer to see a good cross-section of lenders to choose from. Typically, Buyer’s View wants the homebuyer to find a minimum of three individual lenders to choose from in each community: preferably a mortgage broker, a bank, or a credit union. Find a lender now.
Buyer’s View for Listing Agents
Many times a property goes under agreement and after 4 to 6 weeks a problem develops that puts the house back on the market. Maybe it was an unsatisfactory home inspection or the buyer being declined for a mortgage. Now the listing agent has a major marketing problem in today’s antiquated system. They need to start their marketing all over again which means more expenses and more time spent. We don’t even want to mention a very disgruntled homeowner. Buyer’s View solves this problem by allowing the listing agent to search the Buyer’s View database immediately and hopefully find a match for their listing. Find an agent now.
How did Buyer’s View get started?
In 1990, Robert (Bob) McAvoy converted his residential real estate office to Buyer’s View, Inc. Bob felt it was time for the home buyer to be represented by a professional licensed real estate agent that had their best interests in mind and not that of the seller’s. His office was one of the first in the New England area to exclusively represent the home buyer. At that time, all agents represented the seller even on a co-broke basis in a sub-agency capacity. Initially, there was resistance to the idea of agents on both sides of the transaction. McAvoy knew then that his agents were practicing a more sensible, consumer-friendly approach and that approach now dominates real estate practices in North America. Buyer’s View will again bring balance and equitable footing back to the marketplace.
In 1995 The NH Association of Exclusive Buyer Agents was founded by Bob and he was elected their first President. Bringing together real estate professionals who truly believed in the benefits of undivided loyalty and the common law of agency, Bob’s energy proved to be the catalyst for Buyer Agency and today’s current agency practices. Today buyer representation is common and accepted practice throughout the industry.
Although Bob McAvoy retired some years ago, he was continuously bothered by the current Seller dominated MLS sales system and the one-sided approach to the market. The Real Estate Portals and MLS do not treat the home buyer fairly. After several years of experimenting with ideas, he has come out of retirement to launch the Buyer’s View platform and website and build a sound team of professionals geared to helping Buyers and making selling a home much easier. Buyer’s View’s platform puts the buyer back in control, where they belong, and on a more level playing field with the seller. Buyer’s View’s market approach is a win-win for Buyers, Sellers, and their licensed agents.
The seller now has a pool of available buyers to approach in their local market which can significantly reduce the advertising cost for their listing agent and help homes sell more quickly. The Buyer Agent will now have a vehicle to expose their client’s home buying needs for everyone to see and a much stronger hand in negotiating commissions and price. Moreover, the seller and their agent can now take a more pro-active role in helping to sell their property by being able to target these buyers.
