How many times is your home shown and you don't receive any feedback from the buyers agent?  It actually happens more than you think. There are several reasons that feedback may be delayed or non-existent.  I know.  It feels like time has stopped when you are waiting (albeit impatiently) to hear ...

I have a buyer that is currently under contract on a home with VA financing.  The initial lender that was tasked with the pre-approval was a referral.  The buyer had friends that highly recommended this lender and so I felt reasonably confident that things would be smooth even though I was not pe...

When you are looking for a home, do you picture yourself in a single family home with a fenced yard?  Or do you picture yourself in a high-rise or townhome where you can leave on a work trip and not need to worry about what the lawn might look like when you return?  What stage of life are you cur...
