Get pre-approved. Buy now!

Smart buyers always make their move in a down market.

If you are looking to buy a home or some land, act now. First, get pre-approved for a mortgage loan (unless you plan to pay all cash). Contact a lender of your choice, maybe more than one, and find out how much you can borrow. Get a pre-approval letter that you can show a seller. It will give you a leg up over would-be buyers who aren't pre-approved.

Then get with your Realtor and look at some properties. If you don't already have a Realtor, give me a call at 229-924-3089.  I can show you any and all listed properties, regardless of the listing company, and will submit your offer if you make one -- at no cost to you. (I get paid by sellers.)

Locally, in the Americus, Ellaville, Sumter County, Ga., and Schley County, Ga. area. home prices are stable or dropping. It's a buyer's market (for those who qualify). Speak to a lender, and get your conditional pre-approval. Then you'll be in a position to negotiate with sellers and make your best deal. 

If you would like for me to represent you in a transaction, and negotiate in your behalf, we just need a simple Buyer Brokerage Agreement. Don't assume the Realtor is representing you. Unless you have a signed Buyer Brokerage Agreement, he or she isn't.

Happy house hunting (or a building lot or hunting tract, maybe). Call me any time you have questions or need some help.
