My official title is Licensed Real Estate Agent but most people refer to me as a REALTOR. I call myself a Buyer's agent because I work almost exclusively with people looking for a house to buy (while Troy Walseth is our listing agent). My job is to find people the house, home, investment, condo, land that they want and are looking for and offer them advice. You are not selling somebody a house like you would sell somebody a car. You are selling yourself, your advice, your experience, your opinion, you work ethic, your marketing plan, and your honesty Let me give you an example:
A car salesman can ONLY sell the cars on his car lot. He has to "sell" you one of the few cars that he has available to him or he doesn't get paid. A buyer's agent has every "car" on every "car lot" in the state at his disposal and can show you any of them and sell you any of them AND the buyer doesn't pay him, the seller does! As a former (proud) car salesman, this fact makes me feel 1000x better about my current job!
