How to Deliver a Buyer’s Presentation Post-NAR Settlement: A Simple, Friendly Approach

    Delivering a buyer’s presentation that effectively communicates the new NAR settlement requirements can be challenging.

    Still, with the right approach, it can be done in a way that’s both informative and comforting to your clients.

    Here’s how to craft a presentation that ensures your buyers feel informed and supported:

    1. Start with a Warm Welcome

    Begin your presentation by establishing a rapport with your buyers. Highlight your commitment to helping them find their ideal home while ensuring they are fully informed.

    Emphasize that your goal is to provide transparency and clarity, particularly with the recent changes in the industry.

    2. Simplify the Settlement Overview

    Introduce the NAR settlement changes by explaining that the real estate landscape has evolved to offer more transparency and flexibility. Frame the changes positively, mentioning that buyers now have more control over their agents’ compensation.

    Use simple language to describe that, in the past, sellers typically covered the commission for both their agent and the buyer’s agent, but now buyers can negotiate and decide how their agent is paid.

    3. Explain the Written Agreement Requirement

    Discuss the new requirement for a written agreement before touring homes.

    Position this as a benefit, ensuring all parties are on the same page regarding services and compensation.

    Explain that this agreement will clearly outline your services, allowing them to understand precisely what they’re getting and at what cost. Reinforce that this protects their interests and helps avoid surprises later on.

    4. Focus on Value

    Transition to discussing the value you bring as their agent.

    Highlight your expertise, market knowledge, negotiation skills, and commitment to finding them the best home at the best price.

    Reassure them that, although they will be directly involved in compensating you, your services are designed to save them time, money, and stress.

    5. Invite Questions

    Conclude by inviting them to ask questions or express any concerns. Emphasize that you are there to guide them through every step of the process and that their satisfaction is your top priority.

    By following this structure, you can deliver a buyer’s presentation that effectively communicates the new NAR settlement requirements, is reassuring, and is client-focused, ensuring your buyers feel confident moving forward.
