Why Experienced Buyer Agents Matter More Than Ever
The recent National Association of Realtors (NAR) settlement has transformed how buyers and agents work together. For the first time, buyers must actively choose and engage their representation—a shift that puts the spotlight on agent quality, expertise, and the value they bring to every transaction.
This isn't a time for casual representation or agents who are simply "along for the ride." Today's buyers need advocates who understand the nuances of negotiation, the complexities of contracts, and the local market dynamics that can make or break a deal.
In this new era of buyer representation, the agents who thrive will be those who have always prioritized their clients' interests above all else. That's always been our approach.

Buying a home isn't a simple transaction—it's a complex process with countless moving parts. That's why we've developed a comprehensive 100-step buyer process designed to guide you from initial consultation through closing day and beyond.
Our process isn't just a checklist. It's a systematic approach built on years of experience, refined through hundreds of successful transactions, and continuously updated to reflect current market conditions and best practices.
Discovery & Preparation
We start by understanding your goals, timeline, and financial position. This includes lender connections, needs assessment, and market education.
Search & Selection
Strategic property identification, scheduled showings, neighborhood analysis, and comparative market evaluation to find the right fit.
Offer & Negotiation
Crafting competitive offers, strategic negotiation, contract review, and advocacy through every counteroffer and contingency.
Due Diligence & Closing
Inspection coordination, repair negotiations, title review, final walkthrough, and seamless closing day execution.
A Relationship-First Approach
At Adam Timothy Group, we've always believed that real estate is about relationships—not transactions. While other agents focus on volume, we focus on people. We take the time to understand your story, your priorities, and what "home" truly means to you.
This relationship-driven philosophy means we're not just helping you buy a house—we're building a connection that lasts well beyond closing day. Our clients become part of our community, and many have worked with us across multiple transactions over the years.

The New Era of Buyer Representation
The NAR settlement has created a new standard for buyer representation. Buyers now have more choices—and more responsibility—than ever before. Choosing the right agent isn't just about finding someone with a license. It's about finding a true advocate who will protect your interests through every phase of the transaction.
We welcome this change. It aligns with how we've always approached our work: treating every buyer as a valued client who deserves world-class representation, regardless of price point or property type.
We don't just buy and sell homes. We build community by helping clients find their place in the world.
