Exclusive Buyer Agents have a CARLOAD of Responsibility:
.
Confidentiality: We won't tell the seller, his agent, or anyone else anything you don't want them to know. We won't reveal your negotiating strategy, financial position or top price.
Accessability: We will show you every property that might be suitable. We will not avoid so-called troublesome properties such as renter occupied, for sale by owner, foreclosures, probate and government-owned.
Reasonable Care: We'll use our expertise, negotiating skills and knowledge to your benefit. We will make available lists of qualified experts, such as property inspectors, termite companies, lenders and insurors.
Loyalty:You'll have our undivided loyalty. We can show you any property and we can negotiate on your behalf without prejudice because we do not list property for sale, nor does our company.
Obedience: You're the boss! we'll obey your lawful instructions in dealing with your real estate business. We will give helpful advice so you can make informed decisions.
Accountability: We'll account to you for any money or property we handle for you, and we won't accept any commissions, bonuses or free trips without your consent.
Disclosure: We will tell you everything we know or can learn good or bad about the property, its value, or the seller's motivations. We will run a comparable market analysis, so you will know if the property is priced above or below the current market for the neighborhood.

Comments by a few of our past Clients:
.
I wanted to take the time to thank you for all of the time and effort you have spent with us. The stress alone has been a nightmare. This being our first home purchase, we could not imagine dealing with any other agent then yourself. As mentioned, when we first started to look no agent wanted to spend the time with us. Thank you again. - - - RT& JT

Ron and I worked together to find a home during one of the most competitive housing markets in recent memory.Without failure, he has provided good advice on the quality of a house and its neighborhood, and if a house was a good deal for the area and had good resale, raised the point in conversation. Similarly, if a house was overpriced or would not be an attractive resale candidate, he also raised those points.
.Me and Ron ended up placing winning bids on 2 properties. The first property had defects that required repair that the sellers had not disclosed. Due to Ron's foresight in writing contingencies in the contract, I was able to cancel the contract and ended up saving about $20,000 in repair costs.
.
Between the first contract and the seconds, we placed bids on several other properties but lost out. In the last contract, Ron and I were able to close escrow within 3 1/2 weeks. Ron also, out of hisown pocket, paid for a termite inspection on the property that I bought and moved into, because the termite inspection was needed to verify what work had already been done and I was getting stretched financially.
.
Aside from the house search itself, Ron accomodated my work schedule, and agreed to view houses with me at off hours during the week and on weekends. Ron also provided me with lots of e-mail updates on MLS listings, so I could look through the house listings, and decide which I wanted to see.
.
Ron is a buyers advocate, and really allows you, as the consumer, to call the shots and make your own decisions. He does not attempt to "control" you, nor does he attempt to push you into buying a house. So all and all, I recommend Ron whole heartedly and would sign him up as my agent if I were still looking for a house. I've recommended Ron to my co-workers and friends. I was a first time buyer, and he helped me out considerably.

Ron found us a special property to fit our unique needs for a first home. As first time buyers price was a major consideration for us. However, we also wanted a solid home in a fairly quiet location that we could improve with "sweat equity". Ron found us a real "fixer-upper" located on the shores of Anderson Lake. It showed badly and needed about $15,000 worth of major work to be liveable. But it was built on bedrock in an area of higher priced homes, and with imagination and hard work we've been able to renovate and expand into our version of our dream house. Because Ron took the time to really listen and understand our needs, we got exactly what we wanted! - - - DM & GM

Ron understood that to us, buying a home was not just an investment decision. We wanted a quiet, serene and healthy environment; a place to relax and recharge our emotional energy after working hard all day. With Ron we found a wonderful condominium in Saratoga, surrounded by redwood trees. As soon as we saw it, we knew it was the one. Ron was sensitive to our needs, and helped us find our perfect home. - - - AD & SD
.
When Ron said he would write any offer, he wasn't just kidding! We wanted a big home in a good Sunnyvale neighborhood, but every house we saw was way above our price range. Ron explained that we were in a buyers market and if we kept trying, we would eventually find a seller who would work with us. He was right. We made a low offer and spent nearly a month negotiating with the sellers before reaching a compromise we all could live with. Ron showed us how we could save a lot of money by purchasing the house as-is and doing most of the work ourselves. We're happy we found such a knowledgeable and professional agent to help us buy our first home. - - - JH & JH

After looking at condos with other agents, we had almost given up on finding a three bedroom in a good area. You surpassed all our expectations by finding us a nice 3 bedroom single family home in a great Cambrian neighborhood, and we didn't need a condo after all. Thanks too for the superb job in helping us negotiate price and terms. - - - PR & ER

Hi Vern, I would like to confirm receipt of information from a member of your service. I was extremely impressed with the speed of response, I received an e-mail from Ron Porter same day along with a questionaire, this I duly filled in and returned, the next day I received a list of properties by e-mail along with further information regarding his services. This has since been followed upon by an information pack fully outlining all his services along with guides to the area and maps etc by mail within a week of applying. I would like to thank all concerned for the excellent service and won't hesitate to recommend other people to use the service. Thanks again. Regards, P.A.

Foreclosures can be a very risky business. That's why I wait until the bank or government agency gets legal title before showing a foreclosure to my clients. These "owners" are able to pass on clear title to you with no attached liens, or other hidden problems. These foreclosures include Bank REO's, Savings & Loan REO's, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, HUD, VA and other miscellaneous homes that come on the market from time to time.

Exclusive Buyer Agents have a fiduciary responsibility to get the best possible price and terms for the buyer.
