Spring comes a little earlier on the Gulf Coast than other areas of the country.
As the sun shines on the Gulf of Mexico the water warms up and then the air warms too! That warm air brings out the real estate buyers as surely as grandma does her spring cleaning.
What all that means for the real estate market is that new listings come to market and buyers should be ready.
In a recent presentation by a local lender, they discussed the importance of a good pre-approval letter for all buyers. Buyers should be aware that some pre-approval letters aren’t worth the paper they are written on and will only end with the buyer being disappointed and potentially out hundreds of dollars for inspections and appraisals!
Those cloud based lenders should be avoided when possible and a local lender engaged for the loan. This will almost always provides a smoother transaction and a face at the closing table.
