Depending on whichever unique business model the firm utilizes, brokers typically have the same qualifications as an agent, but their roles are to primarily supervise other agents. Commissions from sales are often paid to the brokerage, then allocated to the agent involved in the transaction.
Agents are at the forefront of the buying and selling process. Real estate agents work directly with clients to either secure a home at their desired price point and in a coveted location, or to generate buyer interest and ultimately find a new owner for your home. An agent can represent either a buyer or a seller, and both agents frequently communicate.
Once a transaction between a buyer and a seller is under contract, a real estate attorney facilitates a smooth close. The responsibilities of an attorney vary, but some common duties include explanation of the terms of the mortgage, review of purchase agreements and investigation of the backgrounds of properties.
