Hi Joan, important considerations once you get the price point squared away.

Debb, the price point is definitely the first step, which will be identified on the lender letter or proof of funds.
Good morning Joan Cox - without a list buyers will wonder aimlessly in home search.

I find that the biggest mistake a buyer can make is to not get pre-qualified first a that will set the tone for what they can afford to buy

Prospective home buyers will be in very good hands when they seek your professional real estate advice and assistance.
Ed Silva had that this month. A seller called me and said she had her own buyer, but funny, she wouldn't give permission to pull credit, and finally this week gave it up, and will list the house.
Hi Joan... all I can say is I'm so happy I'm not looking for a home, myself, right now. As for my buyers... they are all compromising more vis-a-vis their wish lists than they ever thought they would... and for a third year in a row virtually all of them are paying more for a home than they thought they would need to.
Nina Hollander mine will be too, and possibly competing with other buyers too, even in December/early January with the severely low inventory we currently have.

As my girlfriend often says...no perfect spouse no perfect house (although she is quite lucky).

I often ask my buyers to write down their wishlist and I find they rarely find 100% of what they're looking for. But we all know that bright?
Happy New Years eve eve Joan Cox
I have seen so many wish lists that don't fit the budget, haha. I love the clients that have the budget to get everything on their wish list.
Hi Joan.
Great info to share and keep buyers in the loop on what it important, what is "would like to have" - keeping within the budget. Our inventory is so low - not like in the past where buyers had a lot to pick and choose from - like a candy store. Wondering how 2021 will be. Happy New Year's Eve to you!
Paul S. Henderson, REALTOR®, CRS that is probably the first thing I say especially when the buyers say - I don't want less than the perfect home.

Brian England I think I may have one of those I am taking out next week, OH OH! We shall see, but agreed - the best clients are those realistic with their budget and their wish list, or at least expect compromise.

Carla Harbert that is exactly our market too. Good luck with getting even 3-4 on their wish list.
