Buying without real estate agent
Newbie question. In podcast 210, sunny and sunmarie explained that they purchased their quadplex without a buyer agent. They reasoned that it gave them an advantage because listing agent would be getting more commission if seller picked them, no splitting commission.
For experienced investors who are not licensed agents, have you done deals without a buyer agent and if so, do you think you had an advantage in getting those deals? If not, why is their argument not accurate?
