Home Buyer Tips: The "Whys" of Buying and Selling a Home.

There are a lot of times in the home buying and selling process where "Why" is an important question.  But "Why one is selling?" is not important.

I know the purpose of the why are they selling question is obviously to gain some type of advantage  - not to see if they can generously help the seller out.  Many times knowing a sellers motivation can be an advantage.

Granted, depending on the circumstances and personalities involved,  there are times when sellers volunteer this information freely and openly.  However, don't expect the seller's agent to give away any information that will weaken their position.

What are some other "whys" buyers and sellers should consider?

• Why should a buyer give a short response time to sellers when an offer is made?

• Why should a seller address issues on a property inspection?

• Why is a showing tomorrow more important than a showing last week?

• Why is the home purchase process so confusing?

• Why did you ask me for a pre-approval letter before we look at houses?

• Why are HOA fees so different?

• Why is "testing the waters" not a wise strategy?

• Why hire a real estate agent to sell your home?

• Why do I need my own buyer's agent?

• Why do I recommend sellers review their MLS entry as soon as possible?

• Why are you being so critical of my house?

• Why does it matter if I work with more than one agent?

• Why should buyers not call the listing agent?

The above "Whys" is not an all inclusive list but it does make the point.

While there are a lot of "Whys" in the home purchase process buyers should place the "Why is the seller selling?" at the bottom of the list.
