TIPS FOR BUYING A HOME IN A SELLER’S MARKET IN 2021
22 DECEMBER 2020

With mortgage rates having dropped to incredible lows, 2020 was a great time to buy a home, and 2021 should kick off the same way. However, with so many people interested in buying, home sellers have been at an advantage in many real estate markets. Buying a home is still a smart decision for many people now, but in a seller’s market, you’ll need strategies like the ones below to help ensure your home purchase is a success.

MAKE A STRONG OFFER
Naturally, you want to pay the lowest possible price for your new home. However, a seller’s market may mean you’ll have to bid a bit higher than you would otherwise to get your offer accepted and beat out any competing buyers. Work with your real estate agent to make a competitive offer based on the asking price, the appraisal and market conditions. Winning bids are usually close to or higher than the listing price in a seller’s market.

MOVE QUICKLY
It’s smart to take your time on one of the biggest purchases of your life. However, in a seller’s market, you will need to make quick decisions before other buyers have the chance to sn**ch up a home you’re interested in. That’s why it’s important to know what you want before you start shopping so that you can immediately move on a home that’s perfect for you. Make a wish list of your wants and needs, including location, size, price range, number of rooms and other factors. Have a plan to move into the new home so that you’re ready if the seller wants to close quickly.

BE PREPARED
Since you’re likely to be up against competing buyers in a seller’s market, you need to be prepared to stand out from them. First, make sure you’re preapproved for home financing so you can show sellers that you’re serious about buying and can reliably finance your purchase. Next, be prepared to bid against offers from other homebuyers, and make sure you know the strategies for winning a bidding war.

DON’T GIVE UP
There’s a possibility that your offer may be declined. Don’t get discouraged! Learn from your experiences and keep moving forward. Stay positive and continue your search until you can close on the right home.

CONCLUSION
Even when you’re buying in a seller’s market, you can still have an enjoyable homebuying experience, find a great place for a fair price and take advantage of the benefits of homeownership. Following the strategies above will help you do just that. If you’re considering buying a home, get in touch today to learn about your financing options and get preapproved!

I understand these are trying times for everyone! I also want to let you know I am 100% fully operational! I am taking several precautions to make sure clients are protected but still are able to buy and sell their homes.

These precautions include:

-Supplying all clients and homes I list with hand sanitizer
-Ready supply of gloves for anyone feeling they need them.
-Recognizing to social distancing rules.
-Pre screening all home viewing requests to make sure no one exhibiting flu like symptoms enters the property
-On my listing-bfore viewing requests I try to make sure all lights are on and interior doors open for limited contact.
-Extensive photos and E brochures made and video tours produced for prospective buyers who don't want to enter homes but still want to buy.

We are finding many offers being made by viewing details on line without actually going through the property.

Let me help you buy or sell you home in this unusual market.
