I worked with Felix as my buyer’s agent for my home purchase in Puyallup. As a first-time homebuyer in the United States, I relied heavily on my agent to clearly explain inspection findings, their seriousness, and how they should be addressed during negotiation. Unfortunately, I did not receive the level of guidance, transparency, or advocacy I needed. My inspection report included a wide range of items such as an aging water heater, electrical panel concerns (including double-tapped breakers and incorrect wire sizes), missing or loose roof flashing, failed window seals, incomplete skylight insulation, garage door sensor issues, GFCI and outlet problems, rodent activity, moisture indicators, blocked attic vents, improper bath-fan venting, an unfinished driveway, carpet contamination, and other safety- or structure-related items in the attic and crawlspace. Felix addressed only the attic-related issues, obtaining a rough estimate from a company for that area, which led to a limited $8,000 seller credit. However, the remaining inspection findings were largely treated as minor or not urgent. As a buyer new to the U.S. process, I depended on my agent’s guidance and later realized that many of these issues were far more serious and expensive than I had been led to believe. After moving into the home, The problems started surfaced regularly. When I raised these concerns to him, I was told that the $8,000 credit should be used to fix everything. It is not realistic that an attic-related credit could cover widespread issues throughout the entire home. This response showed a lack of responsibility and seriousness toward the overall condition of the property. I am now preparing to sell the home and, after professional evaluations, I am finding that fixing these issues will cost approximately $40,000–$45,000. If the seriousness of these inspection findings had been clearly explained, or if stronger negotiation had been done, I likely would have withdrawn my offer. Based on my experience, it felt that the focus was more on closing the transaction and completing the sale to make his commission , rather than fully protecting my long-term interests as a buyer. This experience highlighted for me how critical it is that a buyer’s agent prioritize the buyer’s financial and long-term interests, not just the transaction itself. A buyer’s agent—especially when working with a first-time buyer—should provide clear explanations, honest guidance, and strong advocacy, not leave critical decisions under informed. When I raised issues, I was dismissed with the claim that showing multiple homes and arranging transportation constituted “best services.” This is completely unacceptable. These basic tasks are merely standard duties of a buyer’s agent and in no way replace your primary responsibilities. A buyer’s agent is obligated to educate, protect, and advocate for the client’s financial and long-term interests, particularly during inspection reviews and negotiations. Failing to uphold these core responsibilities constitutes a serious lapse in professional duty, and such dismissive responses are wholly inadequate. This experience reinforced for me how critical it is to choose a trustworthy, honest, and professional buyer’s agent—one who communicates transparently, clearly explains risks, negotiates thoroughly, and consistently acts in the buyer’s best financial and long-term interests. Based on my experience, I would not recommend or refer Felix to other buyers.
