How are Buyers Advocates different from Sales Agents?

Updated: Apr 17

As much as we love our job and have been going our jobs well, there will always be times when we are stumbled by client's questions. This is one instance.

At a Melbourne networking event for Singaporean and Malaysians business owners, our boss was asked:

How are Buyers Agents different from Sales Agents?

Intoxicated with the fragrance of good food, he wasn't prepared. How can he attend networking events unprepared??? Now, readers, don't tell our boss. I'll be fired if he saw this...

So, here I am, helping him compile this comparison table.

Difference between a buyers advocate and sales agent

The differences between a buyers advocate and a sales agent is subtle but stark. One of the effective sales tactic is to make buyers believe the sales agents are working for them, and the house they are selling is what they want, even though they know it's not.

We've compiled this table which explains these differences.

So, now you know.

While both buyer's advocates and sales agents play important roles in real estate transactions, they operate with different objectives and loyalties. Buyer's advocates represent the interests of buyers exclusively, providing impartial guidance and advocacy throughout the buying process, while sales agents work on behalf of sellers to market and sell their properties effectively.

Understanding these distinctions can help buyers and sellers navigate the real estate market with confidence and clarity.
