Buy Safely: Choose Properties Where Owners Trust the Seller
Why It’s Important for a Buyer to Know Where Properties Are Sold, Not Just Where They Are Listed
Most buyers start with the question: «Where is it cheaper to buy?» But a more precise and mature question sounds like this: «Whom do owners trust to sell their property?»
Because it is there that:
- real properties appear;
- market prices are formed;
- transaction responsibility exists;
- there are no bait offers or substitutions.
Property Selling is About Trust, Not Advertising
For an owner, this means:
- an asset worth millions;
- personal responsibility for the result;
- legal and financial risks;
- often — granting authority via power of attorney to a third party.
That’s why an owner chooses not the one who advertises loudly, but the one who can be trusted with the asset and doesn’t need advertising.
Who Owners Are Unwilling to Entrust Properties To
Typically, owners avoid:
- companies without a name or history;
- agencies without an office or structure;
- intermediaries «from Telegram»;
- companies without a license;
- teams without public leadership.
Why Owners Choose Systematic Agencies
Most owners choose large systematic companies because:
- they are trusted, and there is already a ready flow of buyers;
- the company bears real legal and reputational responsibility;
- has a clear structure: portfolio department, lawyers, service;
- ensures a full support cycle, not just a one-time deal;
- the company operates officially and holds all necessary licenses.
👉 As a result, real properties concentrate with systematic players.
What a Power of Attorney Means in Practice
Power of attorney is the highest level of trust.
When an owner:
- hands over the keys;
- gives the right to show the property;
- sign documents;
- represent their interests,
they are effectively saying: «I am ready to be accountable for this choice.»
Why This Directly Affects the Buyer
For a buyer, this means:
- access to a real portfolio, not resales;
- up-to-date property statuses;
- no «suddenly sold»;
- honest price without intermediary markups;
- ability to close a deal quickly.
How Portfolios Are Formed in Systematic Agencies
In large agencies, a portfolio is not a «list of listings» but a process:
- direct work with owners;
- transactions with investors selling their properties;
- daily update of statuses and prices;
- legal verification before the property goes on sale.
Why Small Agencies’ Properties “Appear and Disappear”
Because they:
- do not work directly with owners;
- do not have powers of attorney;
- use other portfolios;
- are forced to lure with price.
Hence: bait offers, substitutions, lack of responsibility.
Who is Accountable if Problems Arise
Owners understand this in advance. That’s why they choose a company:
- with offices and staff;
- with licenses;
- with clear management;
- with a long history.

📁 Verify the Facts:
👉 This is continuous responsibility, not a temporary project
Shift in Buyer Mindset
Instead of asking: «Where is it cheaper?»
Ask yourself instead: «Whom do owners trust to sell?»
The answer to the second question almost always leads to a safer and more profitable purchase.
🔑 Key Takeaway
Properties are sold:
- not where advertising is loudest;
- not where they promise «the lowest price».
They are sold where:
👉 The buyer wins when buying where properties are genuinely sold.
