following conditions apply to you.

-> You’re unprepared to deal all by yourself with mortgage loan officers,
home inspectors, appraisers, surveyors, closing attorneys, and others.

-> you’re unfamiliar with the conditions and conventions of contracts and
contract negotiations in the community where you intend to live.

-> you don’t know if the homes in the area n which you’re interested in
buying are fairly priced or what type or size of home you can buy in a
particular neighborhood with the amount of funds you have available.

-> You’re new in town and have no idea about the character of particular
neighborhoods, their schools, their cultural activities, or their public
services.

-> You don’t have access to licensed home inspectors.

-> You don’t know where to go to get the best loans and the best loan
processing service.

-> You’re unfamiliar with the closing process in the state where you’ll
be buying.

If any of these conditions apply to you, seriously consider using an agent.
