Pop quiz! What do you think the answer is?

If you guessed “all of the above,” you’re correct!

One of the best parts of working with a real estate agent as a buyer is having an expert’s eyes on any potential home.

A good agent will instantly identify things that could use updating, potential issues, and the best parts of the home, in addition to knowing whether or not this is the home on which you should make an offer.

For many buyers, this kind of professional experience and knowledge is invaluable and can steer them away from homes that might not be a good fit.

A home warranty can be a financial lifesaver, covering the cost of maintaining your household systems or appliances.

But before you sign on the dotted line, make sure to ask:
1️⃣ What's covered?
2️⃣ What's the deductible?
3️⃣ When does coverage begin and end?
4️⃣ What's hidden in the fine print?

Don't hesitate to question anything that's unclear. Protect your home and wallet with confidence!

🌟 Attention future sellers! When weighing offers for your home, the highest bid isn't always the best choice. A lucrative offer might be tempting, but it's essential to consider all aspects of the deal. Ask yourself these crucial questions:

- Is the buyer asking you to cover closing costs or offer seller credits?
- Are there any contingencies, like the buyer needing to sell their current home first?
- Is there an offer that’s lower but in cash, skipping the loan process?
- Does the offer come with a lengthy closing timeline?
- Is a pre-approval letter attached, showing the buyer's serious intent?

These elements affect how smoothly and quickly you can close your sale. The ideal offer isn't just about price; it's about finding the right balance that meets your needs. If you’re planning to sell this year, keep this checklist handy. Your future self will thank you!

Some might wonder why you would ever buy a new home when you have a good interest rate…

But that’s because they don’t know how to leverage real estate!

If you want to get into a new home, don’t let your current low interest rate hold you back. Instead, put your current home to work!

Using a HELOC, you can pull out the equity you have in your current home and use it as a down payment on your new home.

Then, turn that first home into a rental! This will generate passive income, keep your low interest rate, and help you build equity in two homes at once.

Want to get started? Reach out, and let’s make you a real estate investor!
