QHow do the recent NAR settlements and buyer agency laws impact real estate transactions in Montgomery County?  
A As a Montgomery County resident, you’re in a unique position. Maryland is one of only 16 states where buyer representation is enshrined in law, a testament to our consumer-driven approach. The advocacy of an experienced buyer’s agent is invaluable, offering protection and insight that can save a buyer far more than they ever pay for hiring their agent. We love helping our buyer clients find the best home with the best possible terms! 

The NAR settlement requires that MLS listings no longer show compensation offers for buyer’s brokers. As before, buyers still have options: buyer’s brokers can be paid by the buyer, seller or listing brokerage. We understand that making a major purchase like a home involves navigating complex laws and market conditions. Our team’s extensive experience gives you the edge you need to make informed decisions and negotiate effectively.
