Pasadena Buyers - If A “BOM” Comes Along, Will You Be Ready?
Our current Pasadena real estate market is quite active. Multiple offers, sales over list price. Even in this extreme sellers’ market, we see properties “fall out” of escrow. Back on Market. BOM
So if you find out a home is back on the market -- BOM - the technical real estate-speak in our area - Will you be ready? Will you be able to make a decision quickly? Step up to the proverbial plate and make that decision to step in as the new buyer and eventual homeowner.
There may be others competing with you - or not.
The reasons can and do vary by a property may fall out of escrow. Inspections issues. Lender or appraisal concerns. Talking with too many relatives or co-workers. Just plain old buyers’ remorse.
In some cases, you may be in a back-up position to step in to the buyer’s position. Will you hmmm, haaaww and act reluctant? Or will you confidently? Will you be ready when you know about the BOM?
Of course, you will complete your due diligence. You will hire an inspector, maybe call contractors for follow-up. You will have your apprasial. You will read and acknowledge the disclosures, the preliminary title report and other documents. Hey, the previous buyer may have had an inspection as well which will you will have access.
Second chances do come along - will you be ready?
I’ve experienced second chances in my career selling Pasadena real estate(and throughout the San Gabriel Valley). My advice is if you are a buyer, this is not a time to “think about it” -- you will need to react decivisley. If you would like more information about second chances and Pasadena real estate, contact me at 818.516.4393 cell or michaeljacobs@coldwellbanker.com.
