Don’t freak out……..

Today things are harder then they ever were when it comes to Real Estate, Mortgage Banking, Building permits etc.  A number of our customers are learning this the hard way. Often times the customers we are working are in the process of selling their current house so that they can build their dream house.  This process has a lot of pitfalls, and you could not pay me to be in the Real Estate business right now. Recently I was working with a customer who was selling their house, to someone who was selling their house to someone else.  I watched this poor couple ride a roller coaster of ups and downs as they went through the process. You need to expect some of this.  Between preliminary finance approvals, bank inspections, appraisals, final finance approval, the permit process etc.  There are a lot of agencies trying their hardest to make sure deals go the right way. Though you will think their goal is sabotage.  My only advice, “Don’t Freak Out”. Typically things fall into place.   Our world still functions on people trying to make some money, money motivated people tend to find a way to make things work. Weather it is the buyers lawyer, the sellers lawyer, the title company, the appraiser, the Realtor, all of these people do not get paid when deals fall apart so they actual want the deal to go through and will work to make it happen despite all the obstacles.  As the customer, you are often stuck sitting there just waiting for news and it will often look bleak.  But be patient, if you have partnered with good people most of the time things work out just they was you planned. Don’t take the fun out of it by letting the stress get to you.
