It is creating a whole new dilemma for those looking to buy. Each day our inventory of homes is shrinking and each day when we as Realtors run our property searches for new listings we are coming up with less and less options for our clients. Many potential buyers are putting in offers on multiple properties only to be out bid each and every time. After weeks or even months (ouch!) of doing this, the clients get discouraged and their Realtor gets frustrated. The end result of this in many cases is that the buyers either give up all together or they settle for something very different from what they actually want. Either way you end up with an unhappy/dissatisfied client.
This does not have to be the case, there is an ART to writing offers in a way that makes them more attractive to the banks and there are often ways to overcome bank objections to VA or FHA financing. If you are considering purchasing in Southern California this year, you will need to select a Realtor that is ready to do the extra work involved in getting your offer in front of the people who make the decisions. It is not uncommon for new listings to receive ten or twenty offers within days of being listed on the MLS. How will your offer compare? Will it stand out above the rest? Unfortunately not all offers on Riverside homes for sale are created equally, the little details, the presentation, and the submission of a completed packet are crucial in an offer making the cut. If you are looking for Realtor who has the experience and dedication needed to help you into your new home contact me today for more information.

At a time when other investment options (stocks, bonds, and traditional savings accounts) are showing such a small return and can be very risky, there is a great opportunity to make an investment in real estate and see immediate and considerable gains through rental income. The combination of very low prices, low interest rates and high rental demand is creating the perfect storm for those wishing to grow their real estate portfolio. If you would like more information on how and where to invest please call or email and I will send you out more detailed information on available homes.
