If I do my own research on house hunting, go to open houses and pay for home inspections, what other services do buyer agents usually provide besides submitting the offer (possibly help on negotiation)?

i think so in stroller yes, very convenient, $10/adult's entree, $6/kid's meal for $ level expense, however we still bring our own snacks/water. the bag check is not about regular food/drink.
I also assume the house purchase contracts are standard for resale homes: escrow and titile company, not the agents, handle the paperwork. Anyone can shed some lights on this too?

home Personally, I don't think you gain much by taking all the efforts by yourself. Of course, you hope that by eliminating the buyer's agent from the list, you have a bit better leeway to negotiate for a lower price, but, you never know, and it is not guaranteed. I worked with a agent, a good one. I enjoyed many conversations, open-house trips, suggestions and learning experience. She recommended reliable inspectors, efficient lawyer and loan agent, making the purchasing a breeze. She replied every phone call I made, and all my emails too. Her timely response to the seller's agent was also important for us to win the house ( there was a higher bidder). Treat your agent as a friend, an adviser, not someone who just want part of your payment.

I agree with you on most parts. But finding a good agent is THE challenging part, since there are no established system to track their credibility (such as yelp). I would pay the full commission if I find such agents.

是不是Wyndham Bonnet Creek Resort? 嗯,可以带小的那种自己背着的cooler。
My concern is not about paying commission, but i simply haven't met honest, knowledgeable and trustworthy agent so far. So I started doing my own research.
challenging credibility ( such ask around, and let your friends to recommend, that's probably the best " tracked record" that you can find.

我们家都是待到晚上的焰火或者大表演之类的结束,从来不出去午休。。。。。blush 4天有stroller没事的,没stroller小孩就得走不少路,我女儿这次就比较辛苦。 最好有一个人专门负责到处到点去给所有人拿fast pass,这样可以省事很多。 child swap的时候可以多拿一张fast pass,up to 3人还可以多坐一次哦。
We usually get a hotel or condo near by. Go to the park as early as possible in the morning. When we all get tired, we go back to room to take a nap. It's usually hot and crowded in the afternoon anyway. or if you have energy, you can bring a comfortable stroller for the kid to sleep in. For ticket, you can re-enter the same park as long as you get a stamp before you leave. We bring snack to the park. Sometimes buy fast food in park, sometimes go out to eat if we want to go back to room for a nap. you can bring food and drinks (plastic bottles).
