When Your Agent Cares More About Commission Than You

Is your agent working for you—or against you?
Too many buyers get pushed into bad deals by commission-driven agents. In this episode, I break down the exact red flags that expose when your agent is not protecting your best interests.

If you’re buying a home in 2025, this is a must-listen. I share real client stories—including how I saved Tom from overpaying by $30K—and explain how the right agent + lender partnership keeps your money, your home, and your peace of mind safe.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• 🚩 Red flag #1: Waiving inspections & contingencies without explanation
• 🚩 Red flag #2: Pressure to overpay without solid comps
• 🚩 Red flag #3: Rushed decisions & “submit tonight” pressure tactics
• 🚩 Red flag #4: Poor communication & agents who ghost you
• ✅ How I personally review contracts to protect clients
• ✅ Why teamwork between a top agent and lender saves you money
• ✅ Case studies: Tom’s $15K safer offer + $8K repairs, Andrew’s condo flood zone nightmare
• ✅ Why you can change your agent if they’re not putting you first
