A Buyer Brokerage Agreement locks a buyer into working with an agent and outlines their pay. If you don’t want that agent or the fees, don’t sign it.

What is a Buyer Brokerage Agreement?

A Buyer Brokerage Agreement is a contract between a real estate agent and a buyer. It outlines how the agent will be compensated for representing the buyer and typically locks the buyer into an exclusive relationship with that agent.

Important: If you do not want the agent to represent you — or be responsible for paying the associated fees — do not sign this agreement.

Many buyers are surprised to learn that agents are not free. In most cases, it’s actually the seller who pays the buyer’s agent’s commission.
