Hi Everyone,
We have all heard the question what comes first the chicken or the egg, but how does this apply to real estate? I am a Home Buying Expert that just works with buyers in Spokane Washington so let me share my observations with you.I usually see Spokane Home Buyers driving around, picking up flyers, coming in to open houses, Getting on the internet and jumping from site to site, and they usually like to go shopping before they pick a Realtor to help them. It's low pressure and fun and there is no commitment.
The problem is that before you know it they find a home they want and pick a lender, to get a loan, and a realtor at the last minute to help them. This is a big mistake. Th lender may not be very good and the Realtor may not be very good, and really you don't know because you just met them. You will find out that they aren't very good in the following weeks when the home you love is on the line due to their mistakes.
Homes get lost all the time after the offer and it could usually be avoided with the right Realtor and Lender. Just finding the home is the easy part, Getting it closed and handling all the details that come up to make sure it closes is the difference from a bad Realtor and a a Good one.
Don't learn by losing the house you really wanted or getting it after a horrible transaction. Make your choice of professionals first so you have time to find out if they are really good. After hiring them you will start to see how they handle things like returning calls, getting things taken care of, and their general leel of care and expertise.
Call us to help you get started 509-362-1966 and let us help you get the home closed.
I agree and I'm glad you are teaching buyers to not continue to make the same mistakes.
The Realtor should come first , but the media always pains us as the least important. Buyers learn the hard way that this isn't true.
