Here's what a customer recently had to say about working with THE CONDO SHOP and Dennis McVeigh:
Dennis,
Let me start of by saying Thank You! My condo at the Towers had been on the market with another realtor for over eight (8) months. While I was told there were several prospects, not one offer did I receive. Having already purchased another condo I was in the unenviable position of paying two mortgages, two condo fees and maintaining two properties. It was both financially and mentally draining.
Reaching a point where my options appeared exhausted I decided to call The Condo Shop. The response was immediate and within hours you were at the unit taking pictures and suggesting an asking price. The unit was listed and much to my surprise under contract within four (4) days. Unbelievable!!
Settlement occurred at the end of May and the best way to explain it is seamless. I was very satisfied with the amount I received and now have one condo to concentrate my resources on.
Job well done, and once again, Thank You. - Previous Owner at 200 Locust Street

1. Have an idea of what you're looking for: Ask yourself, 'What do I need in a home?' and 'How do I intend to use it?'. Write down a list of must-have home features. Then write a separate list of ideal features that you like but could live without - It's okay to dream a little on this list, just allow for flexibility.
2. Figure out how much you can afford: Review your finances. Make use of Mortgage/Financial calculators that can be found on many reliable real estate websites. These tools will show you what your payments will look like with different down payments, terms, and interest rates. You will not only feel empowered in evaluating your situation - you will also be a few steps ahead when it becomes time to proceed.
3. Myth Buster - 'The Perfect Home is Out There!': The perfect home doesn't exist. If you seek perfection here you might as well chase a mirage in the Sahara Desert. The two lists you just wrote will be your compass. You will find features in a home that are fantastic, and others that are lacking or could be improved. Ask yourself, 'Can I live without this feature?', or 'Do I have the time & resources to be able to improve this feature?'. If the answer is 'Yes' then keep the property in mind. If you answered 'No', then simply move on. One exception: If you answered 'No' but you just can't get this home out of your thoughts - then explore your options! It cannot hurt to ask if the owner can assist in making improvements.
4. Knowledge is Power: Make some time to read about what is going on in 'Your' market. Get opinions from various sources to draw your own conclusions. It's good to have the national forcast, just keep in mind that the real estate market is also a regional market. For example: What is happening in California or the mid-West may be different from what's happening in New York City or Philadelphia. It is also possible that the market in a large city will differ from its surrounding suburbs.
5. Loan Shopping before House Shopping: Many buyers shop for a house first and become frustrated when the process is being held up because of a loan approval. The outcome may be such, that when you find the right home and decide to make an offer, you might not be considered if another potential buyer who is pre-qualified submits an offer that is agreeable to the seller. For almost every buyer (and seller), the clock starts when you say 'Yes, I'm very interested'. No one likes delays, especially you - so don't put yourself through this. Compare lenders and programs. Also, inquire about pre-approval offers. Additionally, you may want to check and see if you qualify for a government home buying assistance program. Visit HUD.gov as well as your own state government website.
6. Home Shopping -with a Real Estate Agent: Now that you have an idea of the market and how it applies to you, why not seek the assistance of a professional? To quote the above source "Remember that fees for his/her service are paid by the seller. If you are a first time buyer with no home, you pay the agent nothing." Besides, if you are busy like most people are, then it's great to know there is a professional looking to find the right home for you. Another point is that unlike friends or even family that may tire of hearing you debate and thinking thru your decisions, a real estate agent should always be available or should have an interest in getting back to you as soon as possible. (Resource Ex: http://www.philahomesale.com )
7. Know who you are talking to: Your agent should disclose his/her relationship with you. You need to know whether or not the agent is representing you or the seller. The agent should make this transparent. You must also know that the situation may differ with each property you look at. For example, The agent may take you to a property that is not his/her listing which could suggest the agent is representing you. Then, the same agent may show you a listing where he/she is representing the seller. Don't be afraid. Just know where you stand.
8. Make them an offer..they might refuse: Don't be afraid to negotiate. Just know that every seller and every property is a different scenario. Just as you are looking to make the best decision, the seller wants to do the same. Communicate with your agent about the negotiation process and the options available. It's also common to get nervous, especially when you make an offer and you don't hear back the same day, or even the next day. Try to remain calm and analytical. It takes time for your agent to reveal the seller's position and negotiability (if any). When your agent has taken time to research he/she can better provide you with accurate solutions or the next-steps. Be prepared if your first offer isn't accepted. A fair and healthy negotiation often consists of some compromise on both sides resulting in a decision that both parties are satisfied with. Next, when you have an agreed sale price, carefully read the initial purchase & sale agreement. Discuss any changes you wish to make with your real estate agent, and if you wish, a real estate attorney, before signing the agreement.
9. Home Inspection: Make sure you have read and received the property disclosure statement. This will give you an idea of the property's true condition and what (if any) renovations have been made. The inspector you select should be qualified and experienced in residential inspections. It's also advisable to ask for testimonials before choosing an inspector. The inspector should allow you to be present throughout the process, and provide you with a timely written report in 24-48 hours.
10. Homeowners Insurance: It is important that you have your insurance ready before you sign the papers, and be able to provide proof that it is effective. Search for various providers to obtain quotes, receive advice on buying, and how to keep insurance costs down.
11. Signing on the dotted line: The signing process normally takes a few hours, so you will want to clear your schedule on the day you are to take legal possession of your new home. It's important to not be in a hurry. You want to be certain that nothing is overlooked and that all of your questions have been answered. Don't be afraid to ask any question either. If you are not comfortable with something, make sure to ask & handle it at that moment. Remember, this is YOUR moment. Don't allow anyone to distract or rush you thru the process. Take a deep breath, get the answers you need, and follow the process systematically. In doing so, once you've completed you can then celebrate your achievements - even reveal your excitement, if you wish. :-)
