What Is The Difference Between A Real Estate Consultant And Agent?

Real estate agents play a pivotal role in the purchase or sale of real estate properties and they do not do is to buy or sell any property. They are experts in the field of real estate investment and will provide you with apt advice when you consult them with regard to buying a property for yourself or selling it. Real estate agents typically possess a license proclaiming them as counselors of Real Estate. They are usually at the back of the activities and are known as behind the scene experts. They conduct research in order to help their clients in finding the right property. They make sure that the investment is a success instead of mainly focusing on the transaction. A real estate consultant in Islamabad can be an employee of a consulting firm or work as an independent consultant for property seekers. Property dealers or agents will work for a flat fee or take a small percentage of commission from the total value of the property as their fee.

 Some of the key takeaways of engaging a real estate consultant

· Real estate consultants provide an array of services to clients to maximize the return on investment for clients

· Investment banks, real estate developers and builders, and real estate investors heavily rely on these consultants for professional expertise & advice

A real estate is a different entity than a real estate consultant. Real estate consultants work independently as they have a different license than an agent. Agents will work for consultants for a fee. The agent will contact clients but will only operate through a consultant firm for authenticity and compliance with laws pertaining to real estate transactions.

Who are real estate builders?

Real estate builders in Pakistan are the guys that build buildings. They have nothing to do with the procuring of land, material and preparing relevant documents, and obtaining the required permissions from the authorities. This leg work is done by real estate developers and builders build what they ask them to do. Real estate builder only steps in when the formalities required for building a house have been completed by the developer. However, all these sections of real estate are correlated with each other and whatever built property you buy from the market is the outcome of their combined efforts. It is important to check their credentials before launching your project or you may have to face bad consequences like court cases and land disputes.
