Tip 4 – Cash buyers Second Home Transcript
Amy Shair of RE/MAX United Cary Apex NC, and Jim Enright of Corporate Investors Mortgage Group, Inc. share Tip number 4 Relocating to NC Cash Buyer vs Mortgage Buyers Apex Cary NC. With so many buyers in our market and the way the pre-approval process works, the sellers are really looking for top dollar.

With so many buyers in our market and the way the pre-approval process works, the sellers are really looking for top dollar.
Jim: Interesting, interesting. That’s true. And speaking of buying down here. One of the things to consider is that if you’re coming down in the next year, the next two years, you could buy a home now with 10% down as a second home. So you don’t have to have a huge down payment so long as you can qualify with the payment. So it’s worth considering buying now as a second home.
Amy: And plus, you can enjoy it between now and your retirement and get things settled, so when you retire, you’ve got the house up and running completely.
Jim: That’s a good point. OK. So that’ it. So we’re on now to Tip..
Amy: Five.
Jim: Five. My gosh. OK. That’s coming up next.
Amy: Thanks.
