The type of financing you use became a big deal in 2021. There were so many multiple offer situations seller’s had a choice of which offer to accept, and of course, cash always came first. Not everyone has cash to purchase so Conventional was their next choice. It was hard for buyer’s to understand this at first.

More square feet became very important after the pandemic hit. So many people were working from home and needed a home office or just extra space in general.
