Can you believe I just put under contract my client that I have had on my database and working with since April 21, 2008. She was looking for a condo or townhome close to her work and we would go out and see homes and then she would disappear for three months or more with no communication. I called her my Hudini Client.
We finally got her pre-qualified and went out and looked at a condo project in NSL this last week that I have been trying to show her for the last year and found a great buy on an existing condo/townhome that was one of the first in this project division built in 2006.
I have never seen such a happy client. She is walking on cloud nine and is so excited it is fun to watch. It is perfect for her and her current life style and this way she is building equity instead of paying out her hard earned money to a landlord.
I got her a sensational price for the area with sellers paying closing costs so she is set to go for many years.
Such a wonderful way to end the day in writing up a contract that is accepted several hours later and just in time since another offer came in right after ours! I love when the magic seems to flow and everything falls into place.
If I can say anything to my clients and those first-time homebuyers, you better buy now and if you see a home you like, make an offer immediately because it will not be there when you decide you do, as homes that are reasonably priced are selling very fast.
The 8K tax incentive ends December 1st, 2009 and that means that you have to have your HUDS and all funded and recorded before this date. It is taking a minimum of 45 days for close and it is going to get really touchy and a scranble this next month as Lenders are going to be bogged down again with all the buyers rushing to get their home closed before the deadline!
A word to the wise.
