What is an Exclusive Buyer’s Agent, and why should homebuyers care? Not all Buyers Agents in the Greater Washington, DC Metro Area are the same. Before buyers start the home buying process, it is vital that they educate themselves about the difference between a True Exclusive Buyer’s Agent (EBA) and a buyer’s agent that works for a traditional real estate company. The buyer agent real estate services are vastly different. Fortunately, in our area, homebuyers have many options to choose from.

For 33+ years, Buyer’s Edge | BuyersAgent.com has always been about a focused business model and a clear-cut agency relationship to avoid conflicts of interest. This consumer-oriented focus has convinced many homebuyers to work with an Exclusive Buyer's Agent (EBA) when buying a home. 

Buyer's Edge Company Inc. | BuyersAgent.com | represents homebuyers in Maryland, Northern Virginia, and Washington, DC. It's as simple as that when buying a home. The exclusive buyer's agents at Buyer's Edge do not list or sell properties. Instead, our real estate agents earn their money by earning their client's trust and by helping them find the home that meets their personal lifestyle and financial objectives. Our exclusive buyer's agents in VA, MD, and DC provide a clear-cut vision, precise focus, and persistent determination during the entire home buying process. 

“The question of agency is an important consideration in choosing a real estate broker in DC, MD or VA. At Buyer’s Edge, since we do not list or sell homes, we have no conflicts of interest. That’s a big difference when compared to traditional real estate agencies that represent both sides of a transaction where neither the buyer or the seller has a real estate agent’s undivided loyalty.”
— Stephen Carpenter-Israel, Broker and President at Buyer's Edge Real Estate

““Hello Potential Buyer’s Edge clients!

I have known about the Buyer’s Edge for more than 20 years! Why? Because I do a national column on real estate for newspapers across the U.S. and have interviewed Steve Carpenter-Israel many times! The depth of his knowledge has always impressed me. He is truly a very committed consumer advocate with a deep knowledge of real estate markets. So when my son recently decided to purchase a Washington area condo, I turned immediately to Steve to represent him in the search and purchase!

What sets Steve and his colleagues apart from the multitude of agents across the area is that he is totally dedicated to the buyers’ interests. He takes an in-depth interest in the buyers’ priorities and then uses the best technology to search for the available properties in the desired area. Once the buyers have developed a short list of finalist properties, he uses his incisive analytical tools to compare and contrast potential options. This analysis covers both the relative value of the property — compared with comparable sales — and the quality of the structure of the home itself. At the conclusion of this process, the buyers can be certain that they have made the best possible selection and have not overpaid.

In the case of my son, Steve’s work resulted in a very positive outcome. He and his partner are thrilled with the condo they selected in NW Washington and they are certain the price they paid was fair and that the terms of the transaction best served their interests.

In summary, Steve and his colleagues at the Buyer’s Edge are nothing short of brilliant! I have no hesitation to recommend them very highly.”
