2. Real estate agent: The so-called real estate agent refers to the business activities of providing real estate information and intermediary agency business for clients, that is, providing intermediary services for the sale of houses. In the process of buying and selling houses, real estate agents provide services such as negotiating agreements, exchanging information and displaying prices for buyers and sellers. Their main role is to bridge the gap between the two sides of real estate transactions and provide services to facilitate transactions.
3. real estate assessment: In the process of buying and selling second-hand houses, real estate assessment is a very important step. Before the bank evaluates the real estate, the real estate agent will also evaluate the second-hand house according to certain principles and procedures to provide some reference for buyers.
What should I pay attention to when buying a house through an intermediary?
1, don't rush to pay the deposit: friends who have bought second-hand houses know that the supply of second-hand houses is limited, and it takes much more time to choose second-hand houses than new ones. Some friends think it is not easy to meet a set of second-hand houses that meet their favorite. After a quick look at several houses, they are ready to pay a deposit. In most cases, the deposit is non-refundable, unless the real estate agent deliberately conceals real information, which leads to breach of contract. Therefore, when choosing a house, don't pay the deposit easily.
2. Check the owner's information in person: Although buying a house through an intermediary company, the intermediary will first consider the owner's relevant information, but buyers must not take it lightly. Buying a house is not a trivial matter. If you treat it casually, you should pay Shui Piao carefully. You bought the house and paid the money, so no matter how the intermediary company assures you that there is no problem with the property right and the owner, don't give up investigating the owner's information.
3. Look carefully at the terms of the contract: once a house sales contract is signed, it is binding on both buyers and sellers, so when signing a house sales contract, everyone must pay attention to the contents of the contract. In particular, some provisions related to cost sharing, house payment (collection), house delivery date, liability for breach of contract and so on. In addition, the vouchers related to housing transactions must be kept well. In the event of a consumer dispute, you can rely on these vouchers to safeguard your rights and interests.
4. Pay attention to the safety of funds: Most friends who choose to buy a house through an intermediary company must trust the intermediary company, but this trust should be well grasped, especially when it comes to capital transactions. Never give the house payment directly to the intermediary company. If both buyers and sellers in the process of second-hand housing transactions receive and pay funds through intermediaries, it is not so reliable. Once the store closes down, it is almost impossible for buyers to get back the house payment.
