Save Money when Buying a Home: Can you trust your real estate agent part 1

http://www.squidoo.com/how-to-buy-a-home Investing hundreds of thousands of dollars is a scary thing: finding that right home, negotiating, making an offer... these all impact your finances in a big way. This is part one of a three part video series on how to save money while buying a house: understanding if and when you can trust your real estate agent.

This video deals with the initial phase of connecting with your agent and how to know when your real estate agent is NO longer looking out for YOUR interests so that you can enter into the offer phase (which is the second video in this series) with confidence and a cool head. The third video deals with making an offer and closing the sale.

No hype, no fluff. I am not selling you anything. I need to understand the North American home-buying scene because I plan to move there myself and jump into the "mortgage" game. At age 40, married with five young children, this is truly a scary and adventuresome time.

Share your experience, your questions and tips here with me so that not only I can profit from you, but others can as well.

Best wishes to you while you look for your new home. Thanks for taking the time.
