Are you ready to sell your home?
If you're looking to sell your property and are willing to take on the responsiblity for the process from start to finish, then Option 1 would be your ideal choice. The advantage in this choice is that you're saving on commission. You would still be able to use the services of an agent to buy a property at absolutely no cost to you.
If you haven't done either and are looking for an agent to both buy and sell property for you and without assuming any liability in the selling process, then Option 2 is your ideal choice. The advantage here is that you would not be paying any commission to the selling agent. You would still be responsible to pay commission to the buying agent. The commission rate is to be discussed between the seller/homeowner.
