When the real estate market gets competitive, you need to go ahead and start making strong offers on homes. Today I'll be explaining three things that I believe will make your offer stronger and have a higher likelihood of being accepted.
- You need to have a strong purchase price to show that you are a serious buyer. Figure out the comparable properties, find out the condition of the home, and make a fair offer on it. Otherwise you stand the chance of looking uninformed and uncommitted as a buyer.
- Use a reputable lender. You want someone that is well-known in your community, and someone that people trust. You'll also want to look for someone that can close on time and get you into that home when you need to be there.
- If you can give the sellers occupancy, then your offer will be much, much stronger. Not a lot of people can afford to buy a home and not move into it right away, but if you can do this, you'll be in much better standing with the sellers.
