🪘 D…R…U…M…R…O…L…L… ~ P…L…E…A…S…E…. 🥁 One word comes to mind throughout this entire process and transaction ~ DETERMINATION ~
Congratulations 🎊🍾🎉🎈to my NEWEST and DETERMINED First Time Homebuyer Mr. GT. Mr. GT was referred to me one of my bestest friend of almost 30 years! He had inquired in the past on the process of buying a home and had gotten nowhere. I connected him with and immediately strategic planning began. In less than 90 days, he went from a renter to a homeowner.
worked thru all of the details and got him all pre-approved. Let me tell you what I negotiated on this one.
1️⃣ Seller Paid ALL of his Closing Costs
2️⃣ SurplusClosing Cost To Buy-Down Rate over 1/2%
3️⃣ Buyer Refunded Over 4k at The Closing Table
At the very last minute, we had a title issue to overcome that delayed closing. The listing agent and I spent hours on the phone working with Title & Escrow, Attorneys, and a host of other professionals. And what would usually unravel a transaction, we chose to collaborate and resolve the issue at hand. I cannot stress enough the importance of hiring a professional agent who remains calm, steadfast, and DETERMINED (me) to focus on resolving the problem and not the latter.
DETERMINATION by everyone brought this transaction to a close in less than 20 days.
I cannot end this post without once again recognizing who had loan documents AT escrow in 9 (yes, this was a 10 day close prior to our title hurdle) days. If you need a loan officer that can close a deal in 10 days, look no further than - And to the at Chicago Title Lacey, THANK YOU ALL FOR EVERYTHING.
