Buying your dream house in low inventory
Be serious, be ready, and be prepared to act fast!
This is the biggest investment you are making. If everything in this house is what you are looking for, do not hold on too long before giving an offer. Do not low ball Sellers. They may not want to even entertain your offer. Allow yourself enough room to seal the deal. In this period of low inventory, people are paying more than asking price to secure the house of their dreams.
Get your Engineering inspection on line to get an inspection done the minute your offer is accepted. Engineering inspections are not for the purpose of negotiations. It is solely to tell you what needs immediate repair, what may need to be adressed in a not too long future and what has to be done in a distant future. However, certaing things found in the engineering inspection might require the Seller to address regardless especially certaing appliances which are not operationel or any other important features which relate to the safety of the structure.
Give yourself the best chance to an accepted offer!
