For example, you can get your loan fully underwritten. This means that you will complete the entire loan process with your lender before making an offer on a home. Then when you put an offer in you can confidently put down your loan contingency with little to no risk. She also suggests that you consider giving up your inspection contingency. If the seller has provided inspection reports from reputable companies, then you can do this with little risk involved.

Avoid Asking For Personal Property Drooling over the sparkly chandelier listed in the exclusions? Don’t ask for it. Want them to throw in that cool lawn furniture? Skip it. Your offer could be very similar in price to another offer that isn’t asking for items that belong to the seller. Asking for excluded items could weaken your offer.

Write A Personal Letter To The Seller A simple way to increase your odds of getting your offer accepted is to write a personal letter to the seller. James McGrath, licensed real estate broker at Yoreevo LLC, says, “While some sellers only care about the price, others are emotionally attached to their homes and want to make sure it will be in good hands.” 12 | The Downey Patriot Real Estate Thursday, April 29, 2021
