I recieved many, many calls this week from First Time Buyers. They are hearing about the possible $35,000 they can get to help with the purchase of a home. This is in addition to the $8000 in tax relief they will get! Why not buy now? Interest rates remain very low and inventory remains very high. With foreclosures and short sales continuing to flood the market, NOW is the time to get a great deal! First Time Buyers are fun to work with! They are typically young, motivated, curious and techno savvy. Did I mention that they're a lot of fun! I enjoy working with them and look forward to helping many more in the coming months.
Most First Time Buyers are doing a lot their searching BEFORE they even contact a Realtor. They like to control the searches and do things on their own schedule. This works out great for me! I always ask that they give me a top 10 list and then we hit the road! First Time Buyers usually have a "vision" of what they want in a home. They have a picture in their minds about how the lay out will look, the colors and the "feel" of the "perfect" home. They have looked through hundreds of homes on line and are ready to see the Top 10 in person. This is an exciting time for them! The excitement is contagious. I find myself nervously opening the door for them, feeling the butterflies right along with them. First Time Buyers are fun to work with!
Up to $35,000 in buyer assistance is available to First Time Buyers through my preferred lender EverBank. It's based on income and easy to apply for. A First Time Buyer also includes ANYONE that hasn't owned a house in 3 years. My lender can prequalify a First Time Buyer over the phone. What a great time to buy a home!!!
