basically: why would someone need a realtor to BUY a house?
i understand that to buy a house, you (buyer) give some money to the owner (seller) in the form of a down payment and essentially get a loan from the bank (mortgage), and then pay that loan back to the bank over the course of years (decades).
for selling a house, i get that you’d want someone to put up the listing and pull connections to get the word out to buyers.
but for buying a home, where do the realtors come in and why does everyone say you need to get one to be a serious buyer?

They give access to some of the homes that you may not know are for sale. We were able to knock out like 8 houses in a couple hours. They have information that we didn’t know about the properties. They guided us through a home inspection, if the house is up to code, and if there is a lean on the house. Things like that. We were out of the country when the sale went through and all we had to do was sign documents online and they took care of the rest.
