Making An Offer


Offer details we'll need. 

Purchase Price

Seller concessions for buyer closing costs, if any. This lowers your net offer by the amount asked for in seller paid closing costs. 

Earnest money amount. I typically recommend an amount you're willing and able to go with. The earnest money is applied to your down payment/closing costs at closing. A normal amount is 1% to 2% of the purchase price however, more earnest money is more appealing to a seller as it assures them a buyer is less likely to back out of the deal. 

Inspection contingency?

Closing date. Your lender may typically need 30 to 35 days at a minimum. I'll connect with the listing agent to see what date the seller is ideally looking for.
