A lot of people have been asking me lately, "Should
I wait to make an offer on a new listing that just came onto the market?" The short answer is no!
If this is the home that you want, then go buy it! In some markets, you have to shoot first
before anyone else finds the property. What if someone else jumps in and makes
an offer higher than what you can offer? If you get in there right away and you
get in first, then you get the property. Your best offer is your first offer.
When you do make an offer on the home, make sure you put a fair
offer in. Don't
lowball the seller, but don't go way over the listing price, either. Before you
even look at homes, make sure that your financing is in place. Once
you've made an offer, don't go buy a boat or car. Your financing will be ruined, and
you'll lose the home in the middle of the transaction.
If you have any questions, give me a call or send me an email. I
look forward to hearing from you!
