What might happen if a buyer or seller is unrepresented during negotiations?

When a buyer or seller is unrepresented during negotiations, they are likely to miss out on professional support. Real estate transactions can be complex and involve nuanced legalities, market conditions, and negotiation strategies that a trained professional can navigate effectively. Without representation, individuals may not fully understand their rights, the ramifications of certain decisions, or how to structure negotiations to their best advantage.

A real estate professional provides valuable insights, advice, and access to market data, which can enable clients to make informed decisions. They also serve as a buffer in negotiations, helping to manage the emotional aspects that can arise in transactions and ensuring that the interests of their clients are prioritized. Without this support, buyers or sellers may find themselves at a disadvantage, potentially leading to missed opportunities or unfavorable terms in the deal.
