Should a realtor be finding the homes for you and previewing them or do you go to them with the homes you want to see?
The reason I ask this is because I was looking for a house, had a few offers fall through and decided to rent for one more year. I hope over the course of the next year to restart my search.
I personally really like this realtor I used before, but as I think about starting to look again I wonder if I should use her. She had me set up on an online system where I could set search parameters (kind of like realtor.com) and then look at pictures of the homes I wanted to see. Then I could request to see them. That's how we set everything up. She didn't really send any to me to look at or preview any of them either. It was mostly me searching and her showing. When it came time to negotiate offers (which fell through - it wasn't her fault), she was very helpful. I just don't know if this is how it's supposed to work though. Please advise.
