Yes - their service to you is free and their expertise can save you time and money. A good Realtor will do much more than just send you property information and drive you around to look at houses. Working with a buyer's agent will give you a valuable ally in the process. They typically have a great understanding of different neighborhoods and will make sure you don't pay more for a property than it's worth. They will assist in contract negotiations, make sure you understand inspection reports, protect you from predatory lenders and in general stand up for your interests.
Choose an agent that returns phone-calls and communicates effectively - overall, you are looking for someone who is going to work hard for you.
