Tips for a Great Offer:

1.) Get Pre-Approved.

2.) Refrain from buying any large items: cars, boats etc. until after your loan closes.

3.) Include a substantial earnest money deposit. It is a demonstration of your seriousness and committment to complete your purchase.

4.) Try to minimize the number of contingencies. Fewer contingencies mean a stronger offer.

5.) Hire an inspector. A professional building inspector or appraiser will make sure the house of your choice is in satisfactory condition.
