TRUTH YES it’s still very much a sellers market. YES homes are going under contract within days and in some cases just hours after hitting the market. YES Buyers have or are seriously considering making offers significantly over asking price while waiving buyer safeguards such as appraisal contingencies and inspections. YES Buyers remorse is a real thing and I’m of the thinking we’re all going to have a close friend or family member who is experi...encing such remorse in the very near future. The to finding happiness and value in your next comes from working with an experienced real estate professional that understands your true wants and needs all while respecting and honoring your non-negotiables. Yes- the market is crazy right now as are many perspective buyers. But why be crazy, when you can be creative? I don’t know if we had the highest and/or cleanest offer. But I do know we were creative. I know that I showed the seller the value in moving forward with my clients, all while ensuring all of the important buyer safeguards remained in place. So yes- these happy homeowners are proof that you can still get your offer accepted in a multi-offer listing and leave the settlement table with confidence in knowing your new home has been inspected and appraised by industry professionals. Congratulations to my happy and confident buyers! See more
