My most recent blog is about What Do You Offer For All That House, and this is a blog everyone whether you are a first time home-buyer or it is your 5th home you should take the time to read !! We were in such an inflated market that many homeowners are finding it very hard to take the loss on their homes, but nothing is more insulting to a home seller than a buyer not recognizing a value, or comparing them to homes that are not the same !
The key points here explain:
- New Homes VS Updated Homes
- Features & Values
- Main Roads VS Busy Residential Area
- Pricing For Additional Rooms & Values
- Legal Addition VS Illegal Additions
I will begin writing additional blogs about what happens after your offer is accepted, and what you need to do to prepare for closing on your new home. If you have any questions and they were not covered in one of my blog please feel free to email me directly or comment and I will be sure to answer your within 24 hours !!
Great resource! Certainly, a well-informed homebuyer is always more apt to make wise financial choices. In case you're unsure about the soundness of your decision when it comes to mortgage matters, get proper advice from a mortgage professional. This will make the difference between spending and saving thousands of dollars over the full term of your loan.
