3.Big changes can reflect negatively on your financial stability during a real estate transaction. A new job or marital status should wait until after closing if possible (but it’s not necessarily a deal -killer with the right lender!). Major purchases can jeopardize your financing, so save that new furniture and appliances for after your deal is done!
4.Cast a wide net as you search and don’t wait to hook the perfect house –
there is no such thing. We can help you figure out the must-haves! If your choices are limited, consider homes outside prime locations and we can help you find solutions to potential obstacles.
5.As you approach an agreement, reconsider the “ifs.” Especially in a multiple offer situation. Contingencies can make sellers inclined to consider other offers with fewer hurdles. Also, be wise
and aggressive in your negotiating. A seller’s market is no time to bring
in super low offers.
