How to be a Competitive Buyer

With competition the name of the game in today's housing market, the info graphic below offers some tips on how to be ready when you decide to make your move.

Having a pre-approval letter from a reputable lender is an absolute necessity when you begin your search. If you find a home that you love, precious time can be lost while waiting for the document -- especially on weekends -- giving others an opportunity to make their offers and possibly seal the deal.

It's also important to be clear about what your new home absolutely needs to have and what you would like. You may want three bathrooms, for example, but will 1.5 and outside shower suffice?

Finally, patience is a virtue and you may need a bunch as you search for your new home. Open Houses are busy; multiple offers are more the norm than the exception, and you may lose out once our twice before find the home that has been waiting for you.
