What is the difference between a buyer's agent and a seller's agent in Ottawa?

When a home is bought and sold in Ottawa, each side typically has their own agent. The seller's agent markets the home and negotiates to get the highest possible price for their client. For a full picture of the buyer's side, see what a buyer's agent does throughout the process.

In Ottawa, it is standard and recommended for buyers to have their own agent. The listing agent already has a duty to the seller. Having your own buyer's agent costs nothing extra in most transactions since the commission is covered by the seller. Find an Ottawa buyer's agent who can work exclusively for you.
