Should I Buy first then Sell my house?
In Most cases no. Most of the time the purchase of the new house is contingent upon the sale of your existing house. Most sellers will want your house under agreement or at least on the market before they accept your offer. We can seamlessly coordinate the sale of your existing home with the purchase of your new home and we will keep you from being homeless or having two mortgages.
How do I know my house will sell with you and your firm?
You do not. There is no guarantee that your house will sell with any firm. But we have a proven track record.We are consistently on of the top offices in the state of NH and have more transactions then any other firm in the area.
How do I know you will find me a house?
We take more listings then anyone in our market share. This means you get advanced notice of new listings coming on the market. Properties sell in days, many times in the day it is listed, so a few days heads up is a true advantage. Also with our state of the are technology you will receive an email notification as soon as a listing within your criteria hits the market.
Should I get pre-approved first and is there a differance between pre-APPROVED and pre-QUALIFIED?
YES you should get pre-approved first. The process can take 1-3 days. Most sellers do not want to wait and will only accept an offer from a buyer that is pre-approved. We can supply a list of companies that we have dealt with in the past and are very good to work with. YES there is a HUGE differance between pre-APPROVED and pre-QUALIFIED. Pre-approvals mean that the mortgage company pulled your credit and found a program that will work for you situation. Pre-Qualification means nothing, credit is not typically pulled so to agents they are worthless.
How long does it take to close on a house after an offer is accepted?
If you are paying cash then around a week if all parties agree. If it is a mortgage then 30-45 days is typical.
What other costs are there associated with the sale before closing?
- Home Inspections If you choose to have inspections they are paid at the time of service and they range on price based upon house type, size and which inspections you are doing. Some lenders require this to be done and some allow you to waive inspections.
- The appraisal – Some lenders have you pay for this before closing. Some will role it into the closing costs. Best thing to do is ask your lender.
Should I work with one agent?
I would suggest that you do.By working with one agent you create a Buyer Agency relationship, this show commitment to the agent and also holds the agnet accountable to a higher standard then if you work with many. The seller has an agent working for them and their best interest, shouldn’t you?
How do I get informed on new listing?
Simple. Go to the home page and click on the MLS Pulse banner and get a log in. This will allow you to search the MLS at you leasure or set up email notifications. Or you could keep checking the web site it is updated as a property hits the market.
How long does it take to get into a house I want to see?
Many times the sellers require 24 hours notice. Some times we are able to get in within hours. Each property is different.
