Who should use a Vendor’s Advocate?
Everyone! A Vendor’s Advocate shares a portion of the agent’s commission. Instead of you paying more to use a vendor’s advocacy service, they simply share in what you’re already paying the Real Estate Agent. So essentially you get the Vendor Advocate thrown in for “free” and a good Vendor’s Advocate definitely earns their fee.
