Do You Have a Plan for Buying Your Next Home? Part 4

I was talking with my clients that are searching for Huntington Beach CA homes for sale the other day and really spent some time going over the first point down below.  It is important that you keep your “Poker Face” when previewing properties, being sure to ask the same questions of EACH property and being careful to not let on which is your favorite.  Remember, once you have been pre-qualified by me, YOU are the one with the leverage so don’t give it away freely.  Click here for the full report.

Just because these clients are buying a home in Huntington Beach CA, the strategy works for any market including those searching for Newport Beach and Long Beach CA homes for sale.  Where ever you’re looking, you need a plan, so get my Home Buyers Guide and develop your plan.  Here are two points from the guide:

1. How to look at homes; what to ask, what to say – You have given the Realtor the profile or criteria of the house you want to buy.  The Realtor has done a search, and now wants to take you to see these homes. How you conduct yourself during this part of the process will be critical to your success in finding the right home, and paying the lowest possible price for it.
2. How to make an offer - During your first tour of a home, you can count on the Realtor to try to get you to make an offer. He or she may tell you that the property is sure to sell quickly, or even that an offer has already been made for the home (or that one is expected in the next 24 hours).

I think these points again make the case to a plan BEFORE you start your Huntington Beach CA home search.  At least you should do if you want to find the right home in the best neighborhood, with the best terms and lowest price.  Give me a call and schedule a Complimentary Strategy Session with me.  I’ll help you develop your plan.

As you know, I work exclusively on referrals.  The best part of that is that the money I save in advertising can be filtered back to my clients in the form of lower fees.  So if you or someone you know is looking for Huntington Beach CA homes for sale and need help putting together a plan, then give me a call or shoot me an email.  I look forward to meeting with you soon.  Feel free to forward this blog post to anyone you think it would help.

Thank you!
