Buyers should work with one agent. Many buyers feel that they should jump around from agent to agent or just deal with the listing agent.

In my personal opinion a buyer should work with one agent and only one agent. Yes they should be certain they are comfortable with the agent. The agent should be competent, accessible and knowledgeable. A buyer should actually interview the agent of their choice. Ask agent to verify his/her experience. Ask for stats. Make sure the agent is savy and knowledgeable in the market or area of interest. Inquire about their accessibility. Is the agent full time or part time? Some of the best agents are part time.

Once you have a working relationship with one agent and have established a bond, be loyal to that agent. If you enter an open house without your agent, inform the agent conducting the open house ASAP that you are working with an agent. Carry your agents cards to pass onto open house agents. See
a home you like? Call your agent.

Believe it or not the buyer that jumps around usually loses out on that "perfect" opportunity.
