In fact, our whole real estate community is very caring of one another. As I wrote my reply to the first email from Lynda I thought I should post it on (5 comments)
Part 1: Seller Wins!! Price Reduction vs. Interest Rate Buy Down A seller can save the buyer thousands of $$$ over the life of the loan with an interest rate buy down instead of just a few thousand dollars with a one time price reduction.
For as little as 1% of the loan amount the seller can buy down the interest rate 1/2%. On a $100,000 loan amount, the 1/2% rate reduction can save the buyer $30 per month. With a price reduction at the higher interest it would take approximately $6,000 reduction (1 comments)
