It’s imperative to work with someone who understands how to win in the current market. Don’t hesitate to interview potential agents and ask about their recent successes in similar situations.

2. Consult with a mortgage broker. To make informed decisions, it’s essential to understand your financial standing. Meeting with a mortgage broker is a smart move. They can provide you with a comprehensive financial overview, helping you determine your budget and lending options. Your real estate agent can recommend a reliable mortgage broker who can assist you in this process.
