Would your mortgage rate increase if you were to buy a new home? Renovation scope. How much would you need to do to your home to achieve the look you're hoping for? How much would it cost? Local market. What do housing prices look like? Long-term goals. Are you in a location you're happy with for the long-term? Not sure if now is the right time to buy in your area?

What Makes a Great Home Offer?                                                                                                                                                             We're about to head into the busiest home-buying season of the year. Want to make sure your offers stand out in a bidding war?  A great offer includes: The right price. Don't just go by listing price. Factor in comparable sales, the home's condition and local demand. A personal appeal. Include an offer letter, telling the sellers exactly why you want the property. Pre-approval. This shows you've talked to a lender and are serious about buying the home. Good earnest money. This gives the seller an incentive to choose your offer over another. An experienced agent is your best resource when making an offer. Reach out if buying a home is on your radar.
