Buyer brokers are not common in multifamily. If you are fairly new into apartment investing, you should have a buyer’s broker represent you. If you are a seasoned apartment buyer, buyer brokers are an extension of your team and will add value. They are out looking for specific transactions that meet your vision. As a general partner you should be focused on 1) raising new equity, 2) finding new transactions. Buyer brokers can assist you in finding the right transaction.
