Choose Your Triangle Realtor or Raleigh Real Estate Agent Carefully

North Carolina's Research Triangle Real Estate Market comprised of: Wake County, Orange County, and Durham County is more professional and sophisticated than most of North Carolina (NC) and the entire US. Wake County, North Carolina Real Estate Marketplace is also very competitive. Therefore, when you are choosing a Wake County Realtor or Raleigh Real Estate Agent serving Raleigh, Cary, Durham, Chapel Hill, Hillsborough, Carrboro, Garner, Apex, Knightdale, Wendell, Zebulon or anywhere in the real estate residential communities in the RTP/Research Triangle Park area, it is imperative that you protect yourself by doing your home work.  Interview several Realtors and Raleigh real estate agents to be sure you feel good about the services you will receive.

BEFORE you look at any real estate...
BEFORE you choose a Real Estate Agent...
BEFORE you sign a Buyer Agency Contract or any other Realtor Agency document...

You need to know the kind of NC Realtor representation to which you are agreeing:

Understanding North Carolina Agency Law and
Real Estate Agent Relationships is very important.



Before you begin working with ANY Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill Real Estate Agent you should know
 who the real estate agent represents in the transaction. (Real Estate Buyer's Agent Interview Questionnaire)
  • If you contact a Raleigh real estate agent, Wake County Realtor or Raleigh Real Estate agency named on the yard sign, or an Raleigh real estate agent at new home construction sites, they will be working for and representing the Seller.
  • All Wake County Realtors and Raleigh Real Estate Agents, prior to showing you any home or property, are required to disclose to you for whom they will be working. They are required by North Carolina Real Estate Law and the North Carolina (NC) Real Estate Commission to explain the brochure "Working with Real Estate Agents".

 If a home buyer wants a buyer's agent to represent him in purchasing a property, the buyer should enter into a 'Buyer Agency Agreement' with the agent.

  • Some 'Buyer Agency Agreements' contain a clause asking you to agree to "DUAL" Agency (see below).
  • It is important that you understand the difference between a Buyer's Agent working for a company that also works for sellers, and an Exclusive Buyer's Agent that ONLY works for Buyers . (See Types of Buyer's Agents)

        IT'S MORE COMPLICATED WHEN AGENTS PLAY A "DUAL" ROLE
A real estate agent or agency may represent more than one party in the same transaction only with the knowledge and consent of all parties for whom the agent acts.  "Dual Agency" is most likely to occur when a Buyer represented by a Buyer's agent wants to purchase property listed by that agent's firm.

  • With "Dual Agency" you no longer have an Agent representing you Exclusively but you are now sharing your Agent with the Seller.
If  you were going to Court,
would you SHARE your OPPONENTS' Attorney?


For you to better understand how these North Carolina Real Estate Laws can affect you as a home buyer and to explain these Agency and Agent Relationships in more detail we are making available the following publication:
        "All Real Estate Agents are not created equal...What Every Buyer Should know about NC Real Estate Law".
