M/I Homes in Plano at was an easy choice for my clients whose property sold in a very short time by a cash buyer. One of the risks a seller takes when putting their home on the market and going under contract quickly is, where will I find a better house than I'm living in now in as short a time as possible, in the price range I'm looking, and in the amount of time it takes to sell my own home?
Like many other sellers today, they found themselves in a market where there was low inventory, homes they made offers on were already under contract, or there were multiple offers. My clients chose not to go into a bidding war and searched every possibility. For all of us, it was exhausting. Finally, they decided on new construction. The home they chose is not expected to be completed until the Fall 2015; however, they were willing to make the sacrifice to rent temporarily while waiting for the right house for one main reason:
Cost Benefit Analysis
The temptation to settle was not something my clients were willing to do. From the choices they looked at that were available, they realized that many of the pre-exisiting homes, would cost them more in the long run and for that reason they did not want to risk taking out a loan on a property that didn't meet their satisfaction. As experienced home owners, they already knew buying an older home would require repairs, maintenance, improvement and updates that over the cost of the loan wasn't cost effective.
