In fact, when it comes to intermediaries, I believe countless people have to admit that the most common path used by home buyers and sellers is probably the deceptive "routines" of intermediaries. Below are some of the major tricks given by real estate agents based on oral accounts from family and friends and public reports.

Buffett has a famous saying: Never ask a barber if you need a haircut. In the same way, never ask a real estate agent: When is the best time to buy a house? Because they have only one answer: now is the most suitable time. Of course, when it comes to intermediaries, I believe countless people have to admit that the way home buyers and sellers follow is probably the trap of intermediaries.

1. I saw a very cheap house online, called to say I could view it, and it was sold as soon as I arrived at the store

In order to gain customers, many intermediaries will post fake houses on the Internet. source. Therefore, when you see a house listing on the Internet, call and inquire, and the agent will tell you that the house is still available.

However, when you go to the store to view the house, you will be told that the house is sold, or you can’t view the house, or the landlord will not sell it, and will recommend you to look at other houses. Of course, in the end you have no choice but to look at other houses.

Therefore, I suggest: No matter which intermediary company you find, you must tell him when you call him that the house you tell me must be true and valid. If you deceive us to view the house, I will file a complaint. Relevant departments. In addition, it is not ruled out that the landlord of some houses may have changed his mind or has actually been sold. This needs to be identified by everyone.

In addition, here is a reminder: with the transparency of information and the national regulation of the industry, there will be fewer and fewer false housing listings. But if the price of a house is much lower than the normal price, there must be something wrong. As the saying goes, there must be traps underground.

Therefore, I would like to remind everyone to keep a normal mind during the process of buying a house. If you encounter a house that is much lower than the market price, you should be careful of traps.

2. There are many people looking at a house at the same time, telling you not to buy it immediately

Unless the market is very good, or the housing supply is really scarce, Only then will there be situations where multiple people are vying for a house. (Of course I’m talking about fourth-tier cities) Generally speaking, developer companies or intermediary companies, for some special times or relatively high-quality housing, will gather many customers together to view houses in order to create a sales atmosphere, and some even It's an "illusion".

In short, the advantage of centralized house viewing is to create a lively sales scene for everyone, and ultimately let the home buyer's hormones surge and you can decide on the house as soon as you make the decision.

Therefore, if you have viewed houses many times and have a certain understanding of the market price, you can consider settling on a suitable house when you find one. After all, if the house is too bad, it will not be highly recommended. But if you are looking at a house for the first time and you don’t know anything about the price of the house, I suggest you not to be impulsive and do more research before making a decision.

3. You have your eye on a house and have decided on it, but you are not allowed to meet the landlord.

In fact, you should pay more attention to this situation in life. Generally speaking, it is not necessary to meet the landlord when the earnest money (earnest money) is paid and the price is negotiated. However, when the price of the house is determined and the sales contract must be signed, the landlord must be present.

In other words, if the landlord is never present, there is either something wrong with the house, or the agent may have a price difference. In this case, home buyers need to be cautious.

Because during the signing of the sales contract, the landlord must be present with a valid certificate, and the landlord's real estate certificate (land certificate or real estate certificate) must be seen. If it is a house owned by ***, someone must also sign and agree.

4. During the whole process, the original landlord was not seen in person, only the notary client

Generally speaking, handling a house sale is also an important matter, and the landlord will be present. . If you are a home buyer and do not see the landlord in person, but all you see is the client, the following situations will occur:

1. There is a price difference in the house

Generally speaking, there are Houses with price differences are all handled through entrustment procedures, especially if the trustee is an intermediary company, then it is basically certain that there is a price difference. As for whether you want to buy it or not, it’s up to you.

2. There are debts or other problems with the house.

Due to the debt or other problems, it is inconvenient for the landlord to come forward, so the debtor has to come forward to deal with it. In this case, what you need to pay attention to is whether there will be disputes or other debtors after the house is closed.
