So I recently had an inquiry from someone who "had their heart set" on a property. They had been "looking for years." By this they meant that they had been dreaming for years. They had absolutely NOT been looking in the serious sense of that word. Why? I discovered the reason: no financial preparation. Imagine that! Someone was going to buy a home without money!
The lesson is twofold. One, don't respond to the pressure to go show houses to someone at the drop of a hat. This should go without saying. Second, get people to a trusted lender ASAP. If you are serious about buying your home, this will be your very first step.
Don't compromise on your principles for either the purchase of your home or your buyer's agency!
