Tune in to hear my most difficult real estate transaction to date... it's not what you'd expect
It's very important to work with a lender that you trust AND has good communication skills.
During escrow, questions and issues will come up.
Your lender needs to be on top of things, resolve problems quickly, and communicate well so that escrow is as easy as possible for everyone involved.
Home buyers are required to sign a PEAD-V Form before touring a home
PEAD-V (Coronavirus Property Entry Advisory and Declaration - Visitor) forms are now required to be signed by anyone entering into a home that is on the market.
The form basically says the visitor does not have the coronavirus and that the visitor understands the health risks involved when entering into the for sale property.
Homeowners, in order to avoid a lawsuit, you want to make sure everyone who is going to tour your home signs this form before setting one foot on to your property.

Check the expiration date of your homes listing contract
If you’re selling your home, and you sign a listing contract with a real estate agent, be aware of the contract’s expiration date.
Memorize that date!
If your agent is not doing a good job selling your home, once that date passes, you are free to hire a new agent.
You will no longer be obligated to pay the old agent a penny in commission.
Here's how you can raise your credit score...
One way to raise your credit score is to fix any incorrect delinquencies you see on your credit report.
After you get a copy of your credit report in hand, scan the report for any mistakes.
You may see a certain bill that you paid off 5 years ago is still showing up on your credit report as delinquent and not paid off.
Call that company up and tell them that you already paid that bill 5 years ago and that you want them to report back to all 3 credit bureaus that the bill has been paid off in full.
Be prepared to provide them proof that you paid off that bill if they dispute they received payment.
Do that same procedure for every single incorrect delinquency that has been reported.
Yes, this is a huge pain, but once done you will see your credit score improve over time.
My client did this exact process and raised their credit score about 100 points in 6 months.
Best of all, it's free! But it takes time.

Can I cancel while my property is in escrow?
Once you accept the buyers offer, you better prepare to actually sell your property.
Chances are the buyer will perform by removing all of their contingencies and you will have to abide by the contract by selling your property.
Accepting a purchase contract for your property is not a game or a joke... the consequences are very real.
