What is the difference between a buyer's agent and a seller's agent in Winnipeg?
Explore with AI
In a Winnipeg transaction, the seller's agent markets the property and negotiates on behalf of the homeowner to get the best price and terms. The buyer's agent represents you as the purchaser, evaluates properties on your behalf, and negotiates to get the lowest price and best conditions. Each has a duty to act exclusively in their own client's interest. For what a buyer's agent specifically does, see what a buyer's agent does in Winnipeg.
If you speak with the agent at an open house without your own representation, that agent works for the seller, not you. An agent can represent both sides in Manitoba with full disclosure, but this limits their ability to fully advocate for either party. Having your own buyer's agent costs nothing extra.
