- A reverse mortgage works well for seniors who are still paying off a mortgage and who want to remain in their
homes without a worry of a mortgage payment - It also works well for people who want to buy another home without the worry of mortgage payment
- Have a significant amount of money to put down, perhaps from the equity in their old home.
- All they must be responsible for property taxes, insurance, and if applicable, HOA fees and the person must live in the home
How to secure a deal on a home from real estate agent Barry
- First, is to be prepared
- Second, get a trustworthy lender. Some loans can be set up to be as good as cash.
- Next, get a great buyer’s agent
- Make sure your agent is communicating with the seller’s agent (out of 20 seller’s agents will give clues about the seller’s motives)
- Once the offer is agreed upon and signed, the buyer and seller’s agent would team up to get the deal smoothly to closing.
