St Paul Real Estate-Buy Houses-Do NOT Waste Time With Newspaper Ads

July 12th, 2009 · help, st paul

Here’s a secret, real estate agents create ads for one purpose – to make their phone ring!

Advertising their listed properties is a great way for an agent to generate leads – buyers and potential sellers.

You can’t rely on an ad to get an accurate overview of the property. The remarks don’t mention the drawback, and what’s not mentioned in the ad is usually more important than what is.

The lesson is to be very careful when reading an ad.

Remember that the person writing the ad is representing the seller and not you!

The most important thing you can do is have someone on your side looking out for your best interests.

Working with a buyer’s agent on your side provides a wealth of knowledge and experience.

Your agent will not only guide you through the home buying process, they are also extremely valuable when critiquing the property and evaluating how well it meets your needs. A good agent and will point out any drawbacks you should know about.

As in every profession — not every real estate agent is equal. Some have different niches that they specialize in, such as shoreline property, investment property, or first time home buyers.

You want an agent that can help you find the best property for you. Be aware of the benefits and rights created by this agency relationship.

When an agent gets word of a “great deal” who do you think he’s going to call? His client, who he has a legal obligation to work hard for you, or someone who just called on the phone and said “Let me know if you see anything?”

So, to get the best buy on a property, hire your own agent and stick with him or her.

I’d be happy to set up a FREE consultation with you to help you achieve the dream of home ownership.

St Paul Real Estate-Buy Houses-Get “Pre-Approved” NOT “Pre-Qualified”!

July 10th, 2009 · st paul, tips

The Serious Buyer Gets “Pre-Approved”!

Your finance strength as a buyer and the length of escrow, are critical elements to a seller.

Therefore knowing how to boost your buying strength is an excellent bargaining tool.

The norm in the recent past has been for a buyer to get “pre-qualified.” You’d spend a few minutes on the phone with a lender who asks you a few questions. Based on the answers, the lender pronounces you “pre-qualified” and issues documentation that you can show to a seller.

Sellers are aware that “Pre-Qualified” certificates are WORTHLESS!

Why? Because none of the information has been verified! Therefore a seller can make a pretty safe better that unknown problems surface while the buyer is getting financed!

To optimize your bargaining tool, make a strong offer by getting “Pre-Approved”.

This happens AFTER all information has been checked and verified. You are actually APPROVED for the loan and the only loose end is the appraisal on the property. This process takes anywhere from a few minutes to a few days depending on your situation. The effort it will take you as a buyer puts an immense amount of power on your side when you are submitting an offer for you dream home.

Can’t get pre-qualified? Call me. As an investor we can potentially still place you in a house on the road to ownership while you live in the house!

An INFORMED buyer is a HAPPY buyer!
