"Good Deal" Homebuying myths
Looking to buy a home? Be wary of these “good deal” myths.
#1: Full price is too much
Homes are already listed at “discount” prices. Paying the full list price can still be a good deal. The large selection of homes in SE WI show adjusted prices on all listings.
#2: Short sale and foreclosures are bargains
Short sale and Foreclosures are the “hot topics” but not always the best deal. Short sale listings take a long time to get accepted. Foreclosures often require major repairs, which raise the end price above other listings.
#3: Cut out the middle man and reduce the cost Realtors® charge commission because they work for you. T hey are experts in the market. Take advantage of their knowledge. It is to the buyer’s advantage to work with a local Realtor® .
#4: Shop around for the best rate
Every time your credit is pulled, it is also negatively affected. Also, the best rate often comes with the highest fees. Just partner with a mortgage broker that you trust and are comfortable with.
The BEST advice is to look for the home that is BEST for YOU!
