Many first time home buyers are very excited with the whole buying home process. They spend hours, days and at times weeks looking at homes. The excitement keeps them going week after week. However, once they find a home they like and are ready to take the next step… They hesitate and double question themselves, at times costing them to lose the home to other buyers.
With the market at rock bottom, there is no time to hesitate when a buyer finds a home they truly love. Hesitation can put you out of the home or into a bidding war against other potential buyers. Recently, I found a couple an excellent REO property that had just come on the market that morning. The property was listed at $62,000 under market value and due to hesitation the couple lost the property within two hours of viewing the property. By 5:00 pm that same day, the listing agent had received nine offers.
So if you find a home you like and at a price you can afford…Don’t wait for someone else to take it away.
