Question about Buyer’s Agent CC’ing the Buyer on Offer Email
Hi BP community,
I submitted an offer on my second property yesterday, and I noticed that my agent didn't cc’d me on the email when sending the offer to the listing agent. I’m curious—is this considered standard practice? Could it be seen as unprofessional if the buyer is cc'd in email?
Personally, I appreciate being kept in the loop, but I want to make sure it doesn’t come off the wrong way or complicate communication between agents.
Would love to hear your thoughts or experiences!
Thanks in advance.

I don't ever cc the buyer when offering or communicating with the listing agent or as a listing agent ever been in a loop with a buyer on a listing that has a buyer agent. Main reason is the agent has a buyer agency with you. The listing agent is not supposed to communicate with you and it'll muddy the waters. It can also complicate things and makes transactions way more difficult. If you are using a buyers agent you need to trust them, if you picked them then let them do their job.
