You Absolutely Deserve to have a Better Home Selling Experience
with Seller’s Edge™

"Trust, but verify." When it comes to selling your home, this mantra has never been more relevant. Your home is likely one of your most valuable assets, and choosing the right real estate agent to sell it should be based on more than just word of mouth or flashy brochures.

That's why we've created Seller’s Edge™. At Buyer's Edge, we've spent over 30 years ensuring fairness for homebuyers as one of the first exclusive buyer agencies in the United States. Since our inception, we've gone to great lengths to help our past buyer clients find the best listing agent when they're preparing to sell their homes. Today, we're continuing to expand that with a program designed to help homeowners find the right real estate agent through comprehensive vetting, data-driven insights, serious research, personal experience, and a transparent selection process. Now, we're extending that dedication to all home sellers in Washington, DC, Maryland, And Virginia, not just our past buyer clients, by offering a service that cuts through the noise and gets to the truth behind real estate agent’s qualifications.

The Problem with Traditional Real Estate Firms When Selling Your DMV Home

In most traditional real estate firms, agents represent buyers and sellers, creating inevitable conflicts of interest. It's hard to truly advocate for both sides in a transaction. The stakes are high: real estate commissions, often between 5-6%, are a powerful motivator for agents to represent both parties in a deal—sometimes at the expense of fairness. This dual representation, also called "double-dipping," can lead to unethical practices like pocket listings, where homes are kept off the general market to benefit only a select group of buyers.

So, what about sellers? They face a daunting task: choosing an agent they trust to sell their home quickly and at the best price. The problem is that many sellers need the tools to evaluate agents properly beyond basic referrals or shiny marketing materials. This is where Seller’s Edge™ steps in, providing much-needed relief from the stress of this decision-making process.

How Seller’s Edge™ Works When Finding the Best Listing Agent

At Buyer’s Edge | BuyersAgent.com doesn't represent sellers, but we've developed a way to support them by connecting them with agents who are vetted, documented, and held to the highest standards. Here's how it works:

  1. Agent Vetting: We thoroughly research potential listing agents in your area. We examine their track record, including average sale price versus list price, days on the market, and the number of deals they've closed while representing both sides of the transaction.

  2. Marketing Insights: Sellers get a clear view of each agent's marketing strategies. We provide examples of how the agent has marketed homes similar to yours, from online listings to open houses, so that you can gauge their effectiveness.

  3. Tough Questions, Answered: Armed with data, sellers are empowered to ask the tough questions that often only get addressed once it's too late. Want to know how often an agent pushes for double commissions by representing both the buyer and seller? Or how they handle negotiations when the deal starts to get complicated? Now you can.

  4. Decision Power: You're in control. We provide the information, but the choice of agent is entirely yours. Most listing agents add significant value, but sellers must choose wisely based on all the available facts.

Why Seller’s Edge™ Is Different When You Go to Sell a Home

What sets Seller’s Edge™ apart? Unlike other real estate companies that aim to represent you and they hope the other side too, often leading to murky conflicts of interest, we take a different approach. At Buyer's Edge, since we never take real estate listings or work for sellers, we are serious about consumer advocacy. Our goal is simple: to give sellers the tools to make informed, confident decisions about who represents them in selling their home. This unique focus on transparency and empowerment makes our Seller’s Edge™ Program stand out.

Seller’s Edge™ is not just about transparency; it's about empowerment. It's about giving sellers the tools they need to avoid the common pitfalls that come with selling a home. Instead of relying on recommendations from friends or family, Seller’s Edge™e digs deep into an agent's accurate performance metrics. We aim to create a real estate environment where trust is built on data and experience, not just words. With Seller's Edge, sellers can confidently make decisions, knowing they are based on facts, not just gut feelings or social referrals.

Sellers’ Actionable Takeaways Before They Sell a Home

  • Don't just trust—verify. When choosing an agent, dig into their track record. Seller's Edge does this heavy lifting for you.

  • Ask tough questions. How many times has this agent and their company represented both buyer and seller? How do they handle tricky negotiations? Use the data we provide to get real answers.

  • Understand their marketing approach. You need an agent who knows how to market your home effectively. We show you real examples of their strategies.

  • Choose with confidence. We empower sellers to make decisions based on facts, not just gut feelings or social referrals.

  • What is the fee for hiring a listing agent Buyer's Edge recommends? The seller pays no fee. However, the listing agent agrees to pay a small referral fee to Buyer's Edge if the agent sells the home. Sellers will know the fee before agreeing to work with the listing agent.
