Can I Use Padzilly Without a Realtor? (B1124-011)

Yes, you can use Padzilly without a buyer’s agent, but you will still need to work with the listing agent or seller to complete the transaction. Padzilly is designed to empower homebuyers to take a DIY approach if they choose not to sign a buyer-broker agent agreement, which some agencies are now implementing due to recent changes in the industry (such as the NAR settlement).

With Padzilly, you can search for homes, structure offers, and see all the financial details—without relying on a buyer’s agent. This DIY approach allows you to directly submit offers to the listing agent or seller, giving you more control over negotiations. In some cases, not having a buyer’s agent could even open the door to better deals, as the seller might be willing to offer higher concessions or reduce the price due to the absence of a cooperating agent's commission.

However, working with a real estate professional can still provide valuable insight, especially when it comes to navigating legal documents, market trends, or complex negotiations. Ultimately, Padzilly gives you the flexibility to choose the path that best suits your needs, whether that's with or without a buyer’s agent.
