Or "How Professional Is Your Realtor?" Having recently finished a four week Keller Williams course on “Buyer Mastery” I wanted to share some of the awesome insights gained during the my time with instructor Steve Chader.   What is a buyer’s agent? First let’s explore what it means to be a “buyer’s agent”. To the average person (or to the average real estate agent for that matter) it means specializing in working with buyers rather than seller or both. So why do it?
