There are several reasons that a client benefits from retaining an exclusive Baja real estate agent:
Objectivity. A client needs one objective opinion on all alternatives, not multiple, potentially self-serving points of view.
Accountability. An exclusive agent is directly accountable to its client. A client cannot expect responsiveness, dedication, and accountability from a non-exclusive agent.
Efficiency. An effective exclusive agent provides the client with one point of interface. An exclusive agent does all the work involved in a relocation project only involving the client in the decision making. Without an exclusive agency agreement, the client is forced to screen a multitude of broker and ownership calls and proposals.
Added Value at No Cost. The real estate broker will typically be compensated by building ownership through a standard commission included in the ownership’s operating budget and the developer’s pro forma.
Broker Selection. The client should select a competent real estate professional before relocation before the relocation project. Using an exclusive agent allows a client to select and retain what he feels to be the best professional available. Without an exclusive agent, a tenant can find himself using a broker merely because he was the first to bring some space to a client’s attention, and not based on a broker’s experience and professionalism.
Minimizes Legal Entanglements. If a client elects to work with multiple brokers, that client is more vulnerable to legal conflicts resulting from improper registration with various brokers, buildings, and building ownerships.
Comprehensive Expertise. A professional broker’s varied experience is a critical factor in assuring its client that the best property will be selected and the best transaction terms will be negotiated.
Indicates Serious Client Prospects. Hiring an agent exclusively will indicate to developers and the brokerage community that a client is a serious prospect.
Extensive Industry Contacts. A good real estate agent will have extensive contacts with the development and brokerage communities.
Creative Solutions. An effective agent will generate creative financial and qualitative solutions for his client.
Negotiating Experience. The experience of a real estate broker in negotiating a sale will result in obtaining better terms and conditions for his client.
Selection and Coordination of construction and Design Firms. An exclusive agent can assist the client in selecting and coordinating construction and design firms.
