听力原文:M: (22)Honey, I think this spring is a good time for us to start looking.
W: We should plan to move out of here before July. I'm tired of living in apartments.
M: I know, dear. I am too. But we've just been too busy to look for a house.
W: We need to find a good realtor.
M: Not necessary. (23)If we use a realtor to find a house, it will be more expensive. Realtors always get a commission. If the realtor helps us find something, we have to pay him.
W: But doesn't a realtor help with the contract? I thought they take care of all the legal troubles. We're new in this country. We don't know all the laws of buying a house. And also, the realtor will inspect the house. He can tell us if the house has any problems.
M: Of course we need a home inspector. But we can hire an inspector on our own. (24)And as for the legal problems, I have friends. They can help us.
W: So how can we find a house if we don't have a realtor?
M: It takes a little more time. We have to check the ads in the paper. Probably also there are special real estate magazines with ads. Then we have to drive to the homes and look at them. It's best to find someone who is selling by himself.

M: It is. But buying a house is very important; you can't be too careful.
