So, I wasn’t a first time home buyer and didn’t hand holding. What I did need was an argent which was actually working for me, not just trying to close at all costs.
I think in situations where the property doesn’t have any issues, where you’re just going in to buy a place, they can work out fine. Unfortunately you have no idea what kind of place you’re looking at until you’re trying to buy it.
Every worthwhile agent will have a ton of useful information before and after you purchase.
