***Picture from www.Interest.com***
In our current market, there are many buyers competing for a few homes for sale. Here's some tips from www.Interest.com on how to win the bidding war for your next home.
1) Pay cash if there is any way that you can - if need be you can take a mortgage out afterwards
2) Get pre-approved for a mortgage - not just pre-qualified
3) Understand the market conditions
4) Make the 1st move
5) Make an extra large earnest money deposit
6) Don't be nitpicky on the Inspection
7) Make it personal - write a personal letter to the sellers
8) Include an escalation clause - that's a secret winning strategy
9) Be flexible - possibly offer Post Closing Occupancy Agreement that lets the sellers stay for up to 60 days after closing.
