1st Time Homebuyers - Friend or Foe?

CLICK HERE TO REGISTER

According to NAR 26% of buyers in 2022 were first-time homebuyers (down from 34%). Some agents consider 1st-time homebuyers difficult to work with. Other agents focus on this niche and love working with them.

What accounts for this, and why can working with them be so rewarding?

In this course, we will review the characteristics that typically apply to 1st-time homebuyers, their expectations, and unique needs. We will discuss how to manage the buying process, including understanding the lifecycle of a transaction, necessary paperwork, technology, and financial considerations.

These buyers are your future business, so we will also cover ongoing service post-closing to add value.

When the market shifts out of a hot sellers market, buyers expectations and behaviors change. Seller concessions, inspections and house sale contingencies may no longer be out of the question. Rising interest rates and slower demand may also change the landscape of financing options. Some buyers may park themselves on the “fence” and attempt to wait for “the bottom” when it comes to lower prices. In this course, we will examine these conditions and how to help buyers navigate through what might seem like a confusing market.
