A traditional buyer's agent shows you houses, sets you up on searches, speaks on your behalf, and negotiates for you. They owe you fiduciary-level duties: loyalty, obedience to your lawful instructions, scheduling showings, forwarding all offers and counter-offers, and guiding you through every form and step to closing.
BuyUnrepped is different. We don't represent you, show homes, or negotiate on your behalf. We provide non-representational brokerage support, which means we still owe you important duties under Tennessee law:
- Reasonable skill and care in providing services
- Disclosure of adverse facts we actually know about
- Confidentiality of your information
- Honesty and good faith
- Market condition info from public records when you ask
- Timely accounting of earnest money and property
- Disclosure of any personal interest or referral compensation before recommending a vendor
The tradeoff: you handle your own showings, communicate directly with the listing agent, and make your own decisions, but you get professional offer prep, transaction coordination, and a REALTOR® behind the scenes, for a flat fee instead of a percentage-based commission.
