Check with your loan officer to see what rate you will be offered.  It depends on your credit score.

To begin searching for a home you need to get pre-qualified with a loan officer, and it is best if you go ahead and get approved so you know when you do find a home that there will be no problems with the loan if it appraises out and no title issues.  No last minute issues.

It is still a good time to sell.  Let us know if you have questions.

Click on anything that is highlighted and underlined to take you to the site for the information.  If there is other information that you are looking for just let us know so we can point you in the right direction.

Check with your loan officer to see what interest rate you will be offered.  It depends on your credit score.  If you need to work on your score to bring it up they can help you with that.

We will provide you with a net proceeds when you request a home valuation.  This shows you the expenses to sell.  This will be updated when an offer comes in and we know all the terms so you can make a good decision.

If you are thinking about buying a home get all your financial information together, and get it to your loan officer, so they can put you through underwriting so you can get approved before even looking at homes.  You will know that you qualify for the homes that you are looking at,  and the seller will not worry about accepting your offer knowing that you have already gone through the process.  As long as the home appraises out and title work is done it will close.  Waiting until a week before closing to find out you are approved is crazy.

Conventional financing is still the most used that gets accepted by the seller.  It is still challenging to get your offer accepted no matter what you are using.  Don’t give up.  Keep trying.  Try to write an offer with the most favorable terms that you are comfortable with.

Contracts accepted this week

Fox Valley home prices April 2 2022-Contracts accepted this week

Contracts accepted this week were consistent.  220 this week compared to 222 the previous week.  That is pretty consistent.  They would be higher though with more listings.  We are still dealing with not enough homes for the buyers that are out there looking.

Look at the communities seller’s accepted the most contracts this week:

Montgomery-12           Naperville-41

Oswego-14                  Plainfield-28

St Charles-13             Sycamore-12

No short sales were accepted by seller’s this week.  Some people that are struggling can sell and still get money at closing.  Prices have increased enough that they do not have to sell short.

Seller’s accepted contracts that are contingent on the buyer closing on their current home. 1 each with a kick-out clause of 72, 48 and 24 hours.

Also, seller’s accepted contracts that are contingent on the buyer selling and closing on their current home.  4 with a kick-out clause of 48 hours and 1 with 24 hours.

New listings has decreased every year.  This is why prices have increased.

More of the homes that have gone under contract that actually closed has increased every year.  It has helped that loan officers are putting buyer’s through underwriting instead of just getting their information over the phone and checking their credit.  We know the buyer’s are good to go and just need to make sure the appraisal works out and no issues with title.
