Ok we're told you about the buyers that may not be serious about buying! But what about the buyer that cannot make up their mind to put in an offer on a property that they like? What about the buyer that seem to like to have you drive them around, look at properties and never can decide if they really like the property or if they should put in an offer.
I am all for a buyer being sure, but with the market as it is ... they really need to make up their minds quicker. Once you see the property you really like... you'd better go on and put that offer in or the property will be gone to the next buyer that could make up their mind.
The process of buying is:
- Get qualified
- Make a list of area *location, features you are looking for and find yourself a good real estate agent
- Give the agent the specs for your new home
- Go out and view the property, take your list and if you like, slightly like or think it is the home for you -- put in an offer! Do not wait for a long time and then tell the agent to put in an offer... because the property is probably in pending by then
** some agents urge their buyers to put in an offer as soon as they figure out they like the property so that they can have a chance at purchasing the property
This is one of the main steps of making an offer: Be real in your offered price. Low balling is almost a think of the past. Nowadays offers are coming in at least (at least)... 3% over the list price. That is "at least". Being competitive is the way to go.
Buyers you have to get a move on.... if you really want the property!

The competition among "first time buyers" is fierce. Those buyers who can't make a decision of which home to "go after" are often "left in the dust".
