Do I need a buyer's agent if I've already found a house?
I was “looking around” at houses for fun and found a perfect house(as a primary residence) that fits my budget. I am planning to place an offer. Do you recommend I get a buyer’s agent at this stage? Or can I pass the cost savings (by not getting an agent) towards my closing cost?
I do not have much experience in real estate.

If you don’t have much experience in real estate, I would highly recommend getting a separate buyers agent to represent you. At this point, you don’t know what you don’t know. It’s good to have someone dedicated to protecting your interests and it won’t cost any more than if you were to go it alone.
