HOME BUYERS TIPS TO GET YOUR HOME

INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF GETTING YOUR DREAM HOUSE INSTEAD OF LOSING IT TO ANOTHER BUYER, WITH THESE EASY STEPS. THESE HOME BUYERS TIPS CAN HELP YOU GET YOUR HOME.

  1. Get your loan commitment. You’ll be able to make a firm commitment to buy and make your offer more desirable to the seller.
  2. Stay in close touch with your Realtor to find out first about new listings that come on the market. And be ready to go see a house as soon as it goes on the market.
  3. Scout out new listings yourself. Look at Internet sites, newspaper ads, and drive by the neighborhood frequently. If you see a brand new sign, call your agent to ask about it.  The home may be in your price range, but not have the features and amenities that you need.
  4. Be ready to make a decision. Spend lots of time in advance deciding what you must have so you won’t be unsure when you have the chance to make an offer.  You should review the purchase and sales contract in advance.  You may not have a lot of time to review all the paperwork when it comes in due to tight timeframes of getting your offer in.  If you have reviewed the contract and don’t have any questions; you will be prepared to get the contract completed quickly.
  5. Bid competitively. You may not want to start out offering the absolute highest price you can afford, but don’t try to go too low to get a deal. In a tight market, you’ll lose out.   If your agent tells you there are multiple offers and to present your highest and best offer, then put in your highest possible offer.  The seller more than likely will not counter your offer.
  6. Keep contingencies to a minimum. Restrictions such as needing to sell your home before you move or wanting to delay the closing until a certain date can make your offer unappealing. In a tight market, you’ll probably be able to sell your house rapidly.
  7. Don’t get caught in a buying frenzy. Just because there’s competition doesn’t mean you should just buy anything. And even though you want to make your offer attractive, don’t neglect inspections that help make sure that your house is sound.
