WARNING! Protect your homebuying options from Open Houses

Visiting Open Houses or Model Homes can limit your Options
What you must know: This warning applies to you ifyou visit open houses, 
model homes, builder models, home tours, or the Parade of Homes, 
or contact any Realtor, real estate agent, builder, builder's agent, 
model home host, or builder salesperson. 

Avoid any direct contact with builder representatives or Realtors, 
such as viewing a home with a Realtor present, because that 
eliminates your option of having independent representation. 
Two rules that govern the real estate industry are important to understand, 
especially if you visit open houses, builders models, model homes, 
the Parade of Homes, or home tours: 

Rule #1: You don’t get to choose.  
The real estate industry has rules of representation that serve 
the large real estate companies’ interests, not your interests 
as a consumer. These “procuring cause” rules ensure compensation 
for the agent who was present the first time the consumer sees 
the property. Who you want to represent you is not considered 
by procuring cause rules. You may think “hey, I’m not going to 
buy this house if I can’t choose my representation,” 
which is always your option, but not buying a home that fits your needs 
is emotionally difficult. These rules may seem unbelievable, but they 
have been used to deny independent representation to consumers for years. 

Rule #2: You won’t be warned or notified. 
Realtors and builder model representatives are not required to notify 
you of the representation rules, or any other warning that you are 
losing your representation option. Some Realtors may ask if you are 
represented, but they are not required to ask. Many Realtors ask 
you to sign a guest book, register, or even enter a free drawing. 
The Realtor uses these documents for two reasons: to prove you were 
at the model/open house so the Realtor can increase their commission, 
and so they can call you at home and persuade you to buy a home with them. 

How to preserve your representation options. 
You must notify the Realtor immediately upon entering the open 
house/model that: you are being represented by an agent, and the 
agent told you about this property "I am being represented by another Realtor, 
who told me about this property. Do you mind if I walk through?" 

EXAMPLE OF WHAT TO SAY TO THE OPEN HOUSE REALTOR 
Professional Realtors will let you walk through the home without a problem 
or questions for you. The Realtor may still request that you register. Make sure 
if you sign anything that you write “referred and represented by Fox Real Estate Group” 
by your name. If you are uncomfortable with the agent or the surroundings, 
remember that Fox Real Estate Group can set up a private showing 
at a convenient time. Just write down the address and contact us. 

If you like the house. 
Contact Fox Real Estate Group immediately. For urgent matters, 
call 612-865-6525. For other non-urgent ways to contact us, Click here 
We'll need at least a name, a phone number, and an email address so we can 
contact you. Then we can help get things started and help you with your move.
