The Role of a Real Estate Agent
Real estate salesman or salesperson is more than just a "sales person." They act on your behalf as your agent. But most importantly, providing you with advice and guidance and doing a job - helping you buy or sell a home.

They get paid for their job as well as other sales guys. Such as Accountants, Attorneys.

The Internet has opened up a world of information that wasn't previously available to home buyers and seller. The data on listings available for sale is almost current - but not quite. There are times when you need the most current information about what has sold or is for sale, and the only way to get that is with an agent.

If you're selling a home, you gain access to the most buyers by being listed in the Multiple Listing Service. Only a licensed real estate agent who is a member of your local MLS can get you listed there - which then gets you automatically listed on some of the major real estate web sites. If you're buying or selling a home, the MLS is your agent's best tool.
However, the role of an agent has changed in the last couple of years. In the past, agents were the only way home buyers and sellers could access information. Now agents are evolving. Because today's home buyers and sellers are so much better informed than in the past, expertise and ability are becoming more important.

The real estate agent is becoming more of a "guide" than a "salesperson" -- your personal representative in buying or selling a home.

Re: Difference between a real estate agent and a real estate broker
Your answers are all valid for the property owners. However, you did not answer the question to the point. Please read the question before spill your guts.

Some individuals and companies are engaged in the business of purchasing properties at foreclosure sales. According to the legal foreclosure stages when the process is completed, the lender may sell the property and keep the proceeds to satisfy its mortgage and any legal costs.

Re: The Role of a Real Estate Agent
Yup, new immigrants are really dumb. They fall for any scams possible. Its gents like Laeeque Ahmed lurking in the corners waiting for them. People like him should be sitting in jail as they are no different from Madoff or the ENRON chief. He is a crook and I have read a lot about him in various complains boards online.
