Putting in an offer out of state

[Tyson Thurman]

When looking to put an offer in on an out of state property on market (such as through Zillow, etc), is it required to use a real estate agent (buyers agent) or can the buyer submit the offer on their own?

Any pros and cons to not using a real estate agent? Since it has no effect on the purchase price and cost me nothing as the buyer, it’s best to just use a real estate agent local to that market I am targeting right?

I know a realtor is part of my core 4 so I definitely don’t want to get around incorporating one on my team. The question is really just to clarify how putting in an offer out of state works.

As always, thanks in advance for your contributions BP family.

An agent will most certainly help you with your offer and guide you through the legalities of everything. They are there to make sure that the transaction goes smoothly and that you don't get burnt by a greedy seller. Let me know if you need help with anything.
