What are closing costs? All settlement or transaction charges that home buyers need to pay at the close of escrow when the property is transferred. These typically include lender’s fees and points or prepaid interest, a prorated share of the property taxes, transfer taxes, credit check fees, homeowners’ and title insurance premiums, deed filing fees, real estate agent commissions, inspection and appraisal fees, and attorneys’ fees. # #realtor #realestate #mortgages #homebuyer #kobssellshomes #closingcosts

In seller’s markets buyers often have to go above and beyond to stand out from the competition. There’s no magic formula behind winning a bidding war on a house. There are, however, things that you can do to up your chances. 1. Money talks. Your best bet if you’re set on winning a bidding war on a house is, you guessed it, offering more money than the other person. 2. Sellers are looking for strong buyers who are going to see a contract through to the end. To let them know how serious you are, it helps to have a pre-approval from your lender clearly stating that you’ll be able to borrow enough money to purchase the house. 3. If you’re up against another buyer or buyers, it can be incredibly helpful to increase the amount you’re willing to put down. A higher down payment means less money will be required from the bank, which is ideal if a bidding war is pushing the price above and beyond what it might appraise for. 4. It never hurts to humanize your offer with a personal appeal. If you love the property, let the seller know in a letter. Be open and honest regarding why you feel so strongly about their home and why you think you’re the right buyer for it and don’t be afraid to get a little emotional. #biddingwar #sellersmarket #realtor
