Most real estate agents and brokers just want to sell you the home, where a contractor who is also a broker/real estate agent has often seen what it takes to own a home over the long run. They can often spot things that will be problem areas or costly to operate BEFORE you even put in an offer so you can make a more informed decision
Generally, brokers can only offer input into areas where they have expertise, and are not allowed to opine on things they don’t know about. A broker who is also a licensed contractor is an expert in both, and can often give insights on the structure and what it might cost to do a project or renovation
To obtain a Construction Supervisors License in Massachusetts, there is a required apprentice period of up to 3 years with an experienced, licensed contractor, before you can even take the license exam. This means licensed contractors have had to take apart and put together homes … many times. In addition they have to know how to read and interpret building codes. Valuable insight to have on your side!
