Concerned that you could be in a bidding war? Use these strategies to increase your odds of getting your offer accepted.
7 Winning Tips for Buyers
1. Encourage your agent to reach out to the listing agent to find out what the seller is looking for, such as a quick close, an above asking-price offer or a waived contingency. This will help you and your agent craft a competitive offer.
2. Make a cash offer. If you are not in a position to pay cash, get preapproved for a mortgage and have your preapproval letter in hand.
3. Pay attention to the listing agent’s request. Many times, they will have you submit your highest and best offer. Ask your agent for some strategies on handling this type of offer.
4. Consider waiving contingencies. If you are financing, check with your lender.
5. Figure out where you can be flexible. You will need to move quickly, so know your must-haves versus your nice-to-haves before you start your search.
6. Don’t get emotional. Trust your agent to walk you through each step in the buying process.
7. Be available. Respond to inquiries quickly and ask your real estate agent to check in regularly with the listing agent to monitor the seller’s progress.

Meet with a Real Estate Professional – Discuss the type of home you are looking for, including style, price and location. (The Buyer’s Advantage – As the homebuyer your agent’s commission is paid by the seller of the home in almost all circumstances. This means your representation costs you nothing!)
Get Pre-Approved – You will need pay stubs, W2s, and bank statements. Knowing what you can afford is critical to a successful home shopping experience.
Search for Homes – The fun part! I will schedule showings and help you find the perfect home. Advanced Search – Not all real estate websites are the same. My RE/MAX site has the tools and systems to ensure you see every available home that meets your criteria.
Make an Offer – I will prepare the offer based on the price and terms you choose.
Negotiation and Contract – It may take a few tries to get it just right, but hang in there. You’re on your way!
The Contract – in most cases the contract provides you with a timeline to obtain financing, as well as time to inspect the physical condition of the home. I will inform you of all your rights and responsibilities related to the contract.
In Escrow – You and the Seller have agreed to the price and term. The home is effectively held for you until closing.
Final Details – Perform due diligence, order the appraisal, conduct an inspection, and review terms with the lender.
Preparing for Closing – You will be finalizing your loan, reviewing documents, and discussing the findings from the inspection. As your agent, I will be managing this entire process for you.
Closing – This is the transfer of funds and ownership. A title company or an attorney typically acts as an independent third party to facilitate the closing.
CONGRATULATIONS! You are a New Home Owner!

Unfortunately, our homes don’t always grow with us. What may have initially worked fine for a single person, a young couple’s starter home, or a family with a newborn can quickly become too small as families expand and multiple generations live under one roof.
Remodeling and adding to your home is one option for creating more space, but it can be costly, and the size of your property may be prohibitive. That’s when moving to a bigger home becomes the best solution.
WHERE DO YOU NEED MORE SPACE?
The first thought when upsizing your home is to simply consider square footage, bedrooms, and bathrooms. But it’s important to take a more critical approach to how your space will actually be used. If you have younger children (or possibly more on the way), then focusing on bedrooms and bathrooms makes sense. But if your children are closer to heading off to college or starting their own families, it may be better to prioritize group spaces like the kitchen, dining room, living room, and outdoor space—it’ll pay off during the holidays or summer vacations, when everyone is coming to visit for big gatherings.
MOVING OUTWARD
If you need more space, but don’t necessarily want a more expensive home, you can probably get a lot more house for your money if you move a little further from a city center. While the walkability and short commutes of a dense neighborhood or condo are hard to leave beyond, your lifestyle—and preferences for hosting Thanksgiving, barbecues, and birthdays—might mean that a spacious home in the suburbs makes the most sense. It’s your best option for upsizing while avoiding a heftier price tag.

The Difference Between Home Warranty and Home Insurance
The Difference Between Home Warranty and Home Insurance
When purchasing a new home, it’s important to do in-depth research on all facets of the homebuying process. One thing you’ll need to understand is how to best protect yourself and your investment if anything were to go wrong. Check out the information on home insurance versus home warranty below to educate yourself on your options.
Home Insurance Homeowners insurance pays for any accidental damages and loss that are caused by fire, lightning strikes, windstorms, and hail, however, damage from earthquakes and floods is typically not covered. It also covers the replacement of personal property in case of theft or damage and liability if a person were to get injured in your home or on your property. According to American Home Shield, the average annual cost of a homeowner’s insurance policy ranges between $300 and $1,000, and the bank usually asks you to obtain a policy before the mortgage is issued. Make sure to keep in mind that each type of coverage in the policy is subject to a limit and, in most cases, you will have to pay a deductible.
Home Warranty A home warranty is designed to cover the cost of repairs and replacements of larger appliances and crucial systems in your home that may fail or break due to age and wear and tear. This includes but isn’t limited to HVAC, electrical, or plumbing components, kitchen appliances, and your washer and dryer. With a home warranty, you are required to pay premiums year-round, even if you do not use it, and it won’t cover damages if appliances were not maintained properly or if the damage is from a fire or other disaster.
