Should I let the sellers agent represent me?
Just like to make this clear that I am not in the process of buying right now but just learning as much as I can before I do buy my first rental property
I was wondering if it makes any sense to let the sellers agent represent me and if this can get me to lower the cost on the home even if it's only 10 or 20k. I thought it would make sense since they would be doubling their commission but let me hear your thoughts.
Last question is if this does make sense to do who pays for the second half of the agents commission would this just be added to my closing costs or would it come out of the sellers?
