Property Dealer, Broker and Professional Real Estate Consultant — What’s the Real Difference?
In real estate, these three terms are often treated as the same. But there can be a significant difference in their role, responsibility and approach.
A Property Dealer generally focuses on facilitating property buying and selling.
A Broker primarily connects the Buyer and Seller and facilitates the transaction.
A Professional Real Estate Consultant, however, should go beyond simply closing a deal.
The consultant’s role is to help the client make an informed decision by considering:
• Client’s Best Interest
• Due Diligence
• Market Analysis
• Risk Management
• Investment Objectives
• Long-Term Potential
• Exit Strategy
• Informed Decision-Making
Because a good property deal is not necessarily a good investment.
Professional real estate consulting is about understanding the opportunity, identifying the risks and helping the client make a better decision.
The real value of a consultant should not simply be measured by the commission earned, but by the quality of the decision they help the client make.
