Why you can’t “sleep” on a house…

After showing homes to clients that I know they love, I often hear, “Can I sleep on it?”

With homes selling faster than ever, here are 5 reasons why “sleeping” on it is a bad idea.

A lot of times people want to see what else is out there.

I’ve seen many people come very close to what they like, but insist on looking a little more. In the time that they decide to look elsewhere, the home has received multiple offers and they’ve lost on a chance of purchasing their dream home.

No home is going to be exactly what you want.

I personally believe that location is one of the most important factors in choosing a home. If a home is located in an area you absolutely love, don’t hesitate because of cabinets or carpet flooring. These things are minor fixes that shouldn’t stop you from writing an offer on a dream home.

An offer is not permanent.

When submitting an offer, a lot of people feel they are locked in- this is not true. Typically, a home will receive multiple offers if priced correctly which will then need to be reconsidered and sometimes countered. The goal of submitting an offer is to get in the game so you’ve got a chance to win. With the right contingencies in place, you’ve got nothing to lose and possibly, a great home to gain!

Your rent is never going to get cheaper.

A lot of people are paying rent that is equal to what their mortgage could be. Even scarier is that they’re paying towards something that they do not own- meaning that they’re investing in something that does not invest in them. By purchasing a home, you are getting more than a place to build a life…you are getting an investment and leaving your family an asset.

You don’t have the luxury of waiting another day.

Time is money and you deserve to put your hard worked money somewhere that will pay you back. By purchasing a home today, you are steps closer to building equity for your future. The time is now.

If you’ve had thoughts of purchasing but not sure how, contact me today and I’ll show you the way.
