Buying a home is typically the largest financial purchase most people make in their lifetimes. Of course, you want to get the best possible deal, but with the desirable properties moving
quickly on and off the market, how can you put yourself in the best position to get the best price when making that offer?
By preparing properly, you can be in a great position to write a good offer and have it accepted.
đź—¸Get a pre-approval before you go house-hunting
đź—¸Write an offer based on home value and not the list price
đź—¸Gather information about why the seller is moving, their motivation
đź—¸Ask for extras, such as washer/dryer or refrigerator
đź—¸Consider removing some contingencies or offer better terms in exchange for a lower price
đź—¸Write a personal letter, humanize you and your family
You might be hearing it’s a “seller’s market” but remember that these sellers still need buyers and offers. Be prepared and you put yourself in the best chance to buy at a great price
