If you fall in love with a home, you’ll want to make sure that you’re the buyer selected by the seller.
A good way to do this is to offer the home’s list price!
When a seller sees a list-price offer, they’ll be more likely to work with you. That means that you can ask for repairs and conditions and have a better chance of getting them accepted.
You’ll always be able to ensure that the home’s appraised value is in line with the list price through the appraisal process.
So if you love the home, don’t chance it. The smartest, most effective option is to offer the list price so you can make sure it’s yours!
