In order to serve you better I would like to share some important information about the real estate relationship with you.

1. I can show you any home that is for sale in our Triangle-wide Multiple Listing Service area. This includes new home communities, For Sale By Owners, and the listings of any company that are currently on the market.

2. I am paid on a commission basis - not a salary. I receive my share of the real estate commission only after you have closed on your new home. This commission is generally paid by the seller and shared between listing company and listing agent as well as selling company and selling agent.

3. I will be delighted to represent you in the purchase of your home as a buyer’s agent or if the home is listed by Fonville Morisey Realty, as a dual agent or designated agent. The differences in agency are explained in a separate section of this guide.

4. I am an independent contractor and although I am associated with Fonville Morisey Realty, I function as a self-employed person. I am responsible for all of my business expenses, including automobile, gasoline, telephone, computers, etc. I am not reimbursed by the company for these expenses but am happy to bear them in anticipation of a successful sale.

For the above reasons, your loyalty to me is greatly appreciated. In working together, we will work as a team and I promise to give you 100% of my ability, resources, skill and experience.

Please rely on me exclusively. Call me when you see a property that you wish to visit or get more information on whether you see a yard sign or and ad. If you stop by an open house or a new home community, please tell the on-site agent that you are working with me and give him/her my business card.

Together we will be successful in finding the right home for you.
