BUYING TIP

Article tools

"In a market with additional inventory, buyers should have a mortgage commitment letter before they start house hunting. When buyers find a house they are really interested in, make an offer to get the process started. You never truly know how motivated the seller is until the first counteroffer."

Brendan Skislock, The Corcoran Group, Bridgehampton
