Why Buyers Must Sign a Buyer Agent Agreement in 2024 (DMV Home Buyers Guide)

Buying a home in DC, Maryland, or Virginia and surprised when an agent asks you to sign a Buyer Agent Agreement before showing a house? You are not alone. Recent changes tied to national real estate lawsuits mean agents are now legally required to have a signed agreement before providing buyer representation. This is not a sales tactic. It is about clarity, protection, and knowing exactly who represents your interests. A Buyer Agent Agreement explains your rights, the agent’s responsibilities, how compensation works, and how long the relationship lasts. It does NOT force you to buy a home. It simply defines the working relationship while you search. In this video, I break down why this change happened, what it means for you as a buyer, and how you can protect yourself while still shopping with confidence. If you are thinking about buying a home in the DMV or anywhere in the U.S., this is information you need to know.
