Sequim Buyer’s Agent Chuck Marunde

by Chuck Marunde / Wednesday, 05 January 2011 / Published in Buyer's Agent, Sequim Real Estate

Sequim Buyer’s Agent Chuck Marunde shares his background in this short video for out of state buyers looking their own buyer’s representative in Sequim or Port Angeles.  Avoiding the conflict of dual agency is wise.

Sequim Buyer’s Agent

Sequim Buyer’s Agent v. Dual Agency

The reason why so many buyers want their own Sequim Buyer’s Agent is because the conflict inherent in dual agency is becoming fairly well known around the country.  You have a dual agent if your real estate agent is both your buyer’s agent and the listing agent of the home you want to buy.  Here is a common sense way I think about dual agency.  Imagine a listing agent working with a seller for over a year, having listed the home, had numerous meetings with the seller, emailed and talked on the phone a lot, spent a lot of time  and money developing advertising campaigns, and essentially having a important relationship with the seller.  The listing agent has promised that seller the highest possible price, and in fact the agent owes his client a legal and fiduciary duty to get the highest possible price.

Now imagine the same agent begins working with a buyer who comes to town.  The buyer likes that house, and the agent has a legal and fiduciary duty to get his client the lowest possible price.  The conflict is very real.  Who will the agent fight for the most?  Where will the price end up?

    My husband and I have been doing some research on the Internet to find a buyer’s agent in the Sequim area, and we were thrilled to find you. I will say that your background as a real estate attorney is a huge plus for us, because we once had an agent who did not know how to draft clear documents, and we also like your three decades of experience in real estate. Also, we did order and read your book, Buying and Selling Real Estate in The Rain Shadow. It was fantastic. I know you don’t need us to say this, but there’s no question that you are so far ahead of the other agents in the area in terms of experience and knowledge and also the information you make available to us on the Internet with hundreds of articles. We are selling our home here in the Houston area (too hot down here), and heading to Sequim. Can’t wait. We’ll get ahold of you soon.

From Los Angeles

It's rare, but once in awhile life provides the perfect collaborator for an important endeavor such as buying your new home. For me that person was Chuck Marunde. His two decade background as a Real Estate Attorney, his prolific career as an author of articles and books on Real Estate and his forthright and moral character made choosing Chuck a no-brainer. Chuck is dedicated, thorough, incredible at the negotiating table, knowledgeable about all local laws & regs but, most importantly, Chuck loves what he does. And what he does is find his client the perfect property. Chuck isn't about making the sale, he's about making the sale that is OPTIMUM for his CLIENT and this makes Chuck a rare bird indeed. I love my new home in Sequim and I am indebted to Chuck for making it happen. Kevin E.

From Seattle

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Chuck over the past three years in selling my parent's estate. It was a tough time to sell during the housing recession, but Chuck always kept things on the positive side. With his real estate law background, he offers sound, practical advice. He helps you along with the process using discussions and reason, rather than opinions and speculations. If Chuck doesn’t know the answers, he will get them for you. In several instances, Chuck took the initiative to meet with county officials to get up-to-date facts about zoning and regulations. I was always impressed with his company’s tech savvy communi-cations and internet presence: weekly email updates, blogs, videos, links, Linked-in networking, etc. He is truly pioneering the future of buying & selling real estate. Brian M.

From California

"Andy Romano is a successful motion picture character actor with over 40 years in 'the Biz.' Mr. Romano has a home in beautiful Santa Barbara, California, but he chooses to live most of the time in Sequim, Washington on the Olympic Peninsula in the great Pacific Northwest. Why? In his own words, 'Because it's even more beautiful and surrounded by more beauty in this incredibly peaceful and quiet place. With respect to real estate agents or brokers, well my friend Chuck Marunde, owner of Sequim and Port Angeles Real Estate, is hands down the best there" Andy R.
