Real estate agents usually charge a commission for their services. Is it advisable to purchase property directly from the seller, without using the services of a real estate broker or agent?
As a buyer you can do anything you want. However, the seller's agent you contact should first ask you if you are working with an other agent, and if you are then once they find that out they should insist on you contacting them through your agent.
It's possible to purchase property directly from the seller without a real estate agent, but having an agent can provide valuable expertise and guidance. It depends on your comfort level with the process and your knowledge of the real estate market.
