Since Real Estate agents are full commission sales people, finding an agent to work with you is very easy. They are always seeking new clients so basically, what you need to do is call a Realtor up, and tell them you want to see a house for sale.
Because Realtors don't want to waste their time with people who aren't going to actually buy real estate, they will often ask that potential buyers get pre-qualified for home loans before they will show houses. An agent doesn't want to spend time showing houses that people aren't going to be able to buy.
State law requires that buyers sign agency with a Realtor before an offer is actually written. Some real estate agents require that buyer's representation is signed before they will show homes and This commits the buyers to use that particular agent. In the current market, most agents are pretty hungry for work so this is rare.
Using a Realtor to aid in the buying process is a huge advantage for buyers. They get the help of somebody who knows the local market, who has been in many of the homes for sale, and has a feel for what homes are priced well and what homes aren't. A good buyer's agent gains a feel for what the buyer is really looking for, and can often find properties for the buyer that they wouldn't have even considered through their own efforts.
The role of an agent is important in negotiating the offer, and in ensuring that the buyer's interests, and earnest money, are protected in the real estate transaction. Also, a good buyer agent is familiar with the best lenders, home inspectors, and title companies, and can help them save money in those ways by recommending the best professionals involved in the other parts of the real estate transaction.
The buyer's agent takes note of due diligence deadlines and makes sure that if problems arise with home inspections, or financing, that the buyer is able to back out of the real estate purchase contract and retain their earnest money.
