I heard that today.  That is good.  Metro Detroit home buyershave to feel comfortable and in control when putting in an offer.  Some Metro Detroit real estate agents push buyers to put in an offer right away.  Make a decision quick.  But you as a home buyer need to set the pace.

Sure the house may be gone.  Especially if it is a foreclosure that is in good shape and price cheaply.  It probably will go quickly but if you are unsure or uneasy do what make you feel comfortable.  If you feel bad about missing out on a deal maybe next time you will feel comfortable about making a quick decision about a good foreclosure.   

Many times I take home buyers out and we see a nice house on the very first time out.  Most home buyers are smart and don't get rushed.  They take their time to make a sound decision after reviewing recent sold comparables and looking at a reasonable number of home choices.

So don't let any real estate agent rush you.  But at the same time once you make a decision, don't wait to put in the offer.  If you like the house and want the house don't wait.  Good houses priced reasonably don't last so don't wait to long.

Hi Russ~ I agree with you .  I do not ever pressure my clients into any decisions.  I tell them to make a move when they are comfortable in doing so.  High pressure tactics never work for me and I hate when someone does it to me. It's just not my style.

It has to feel right. A buyer often "knows" within the first minute of being in a home. Patience is a virtue.

Russ - I don't pressure buyers - but I do remind them that homes that are well priced don't stay on the market for long.  I have had a few prospects come back disappointed at our developments when their "dream" home was no longer available.

That's a post that should be required reading for all new real estate agents.
