Offer on a house before christmas

I think there are going to be more buyers after the holidays and more chance you'll be competing against other offers. Has anyone pulled a title report for you to see where the seller stands with equity in the home? Check out my website at www.wehelpubuy.com if you want to save some money.

If the seller is motivated to sell as soon as possible then making a lower offer before the holidays might help you secure the deal at a lower price. Consult with your Realtor - they can help you come up with an offer that can help you get the property.

If the seller is truly motivated.. it wont matter when you make your offer.. but for you, there could be a big disadvantage if you wait till after Christmas, because home sales will increase, and you could find yourself in a bidding war for the same property... and if you think about it.. even if you over pay by $10K-$20K today.. in 5 to 8 years from now when you have $100-$200K equity, the little bit you over paid today will be very insignificant when you look at the big picture..

I would pull the trigger and buy the property at the current listing price. Have a blessed Christmas with you and your family at the new place. The Seller will most likely hold off for prices to go up after the new year. Well, if that is not an option, asking the Seller to honor a Christmas wish is a 50/50 at this point. :)
