A couple is good, and if they have been referred to you as good ones, all the better. Just use those 2, let them work for your business. Competition never hurt anyone.
Good Luck!

Look for an ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative). They are specially trained to help buyers and don’t cost you anything. We are paid by the seller’s agent at closing. Most of us do not require a “retainer”. Good luck.
Go to REBAC.com (use capitals) and for more info.

Do you have an idea of what you’re looking for? Some brokers specialize in certain neighborhoods, certain areas, certain types of homes. While others may refer you to some good brokers, they won’t necessarily have the expertise on condos, or single family homes in gated communities. Now anyone can pull up an MLS listing, but some brokers have better networking connections than others — being able to get some inside scoop on other properties (ie: this person is moving soon so you can make a lower offer).
