Many of us had walked into a show flat before.
We usually will be greeted happily by the onsite property agent.
He will guide us to write down our contact details and then tour around the show flat.
Most of us will assume that he is the developer agent hired to help to make a sale/sell.
Actually, this is not correct.
He is actually your agent - represent you aka he is the buyer agent.
Instead of going down to show flat and be represented by any property agent, please consider engaging me as your buyer agent.
Trust me and I will gives you my best service.

The agents selected/appointed by the Developer at the showroom for the walk in buyer compare to the agent appointed by the buyer, is there really no difference?
Which agent should know the property in and out better?
Which agent should be able to get some or more discount $$$ in the buying price?
In short, which agent should give the buyer better service and more advantages aka a better discounted price from the listed price?
i say,
The most practical method is to try both types of agent at the same property on different day.

B) You can control RISK (to a certain level, hopefully only.) But definitely not the outcome of the Return.

Discount is of course set by developer.
But developer tends to favour which agent more if discount is negotiable?
Presuming both agents have the same negotiating skill?
So why not have the service of both agents at different day?
This way you are fair to both at the same time giving yourself buying at a better price when list price is negotiable.
i think this is a case of having the best of both worlds which is usually very rare in life.
i shall remember to try this idea if i am going to buy from a developer.
Aka if am in no hurry to buy.
Especially if i am buying for investment(rent collection).

Just like buying anything in life if you have a choice you will choose the best as you can.

so, can buyer agent have more discount than developer agent??
1) Try NOT to LOSE money!
2) Do NOT SELL in BEAR, BUY-BUY-BUY! invest in managements/companies that does the same!
3) CASH in hand is KING in BEAR!
4) In BULL, SELL-SELL-SELL!
