Part 2
6. Don’t Allow Emotions to Take Over-Remember that there are no perfect homes, but there will be a home that is perfect for you. You might have to do some repairs or make a few changes, and sometimes it is worth making the changes if the seller will not. There are other times when the repairs are too much and you should make sure you aren’t just looking through rose colored glasses. Sometimes you need to walk away.
7. Don’t Make Friends With The Seller-Comments you make to a seller could change the outcome of the negotiations.
8. Don’t Panic If The Appraisal Comes in Low-This could be handled by the buyer paying more, the seller taking less or coming somewhere in the middle.
9. Don’t Ignore Lender Requirements-Make sure you respond to any lender requests in a timely manner. This could delay the closing if you don’t and might cause you to lose the home.
10. Don’t Do Things Alone-A good Atlanta realtor will help you through the entire closing process and is there for any questions you will have. Use their experience and expertise to help this be a less stressful time for you.
