10 Strategic Get-Into-Escrow-Quickly Tips –especially for the 1st Time Homebuyers Tax Credit - 09/19/09 07:21 PM

Via Barb Fischer (RD Brown Real Estate):

There’s a lot of bidding competition right now, and issues can come up during escrow, so you’ll want to give yourself as much time as possible.  Even if the Tax Credit isn’t your main motivation, you can still cut down on lengthy … (3 comments)
