Buyer's agent's fees can't be financed? Please explain. That sounds like a
major problem. How then do you deal with a FSBO that you find a home?

Notice the word, "directly". Buyer agent fees can be financed,
indirectly, using language in negotiations between the buyer
and seller to achieve that result.

However, absent that language in the offer, the buyer agency
fee is not directly, independently, financeable.

In other words, the buyer cannot merely say to the lender, I
want my agent to be paid by you adding in "x" percentage
to my loan.

The day will most likely come--when buyer side and seller side
fees are de-linked--when that will change, but, for now, buyer
agent fees are not directly, independently financeable.
