Is it the right time to buy a home in Riverside?

If you listen to the news, you would never buy a home.  However, people get married, or have a new family member, or want to downsize to a smaller home from a larger one.  People will always buy homes, and the interest rates are still relatively low.  Whatever type of residential property you are thinking of buying – single family home, condominium, townhouse, or coop, it’s important to speak with a real estate attorney before you enter into a contract of sale. 

Real Estate Financing

Obtaining financing for a home purchase is a tedious task.  We recommend working with a lender who is reputable and puts everything in writing.  Mortgage companies are tightening their belts, and appraisals and new lending guidelines can change your transaction.  Our residential real estate lawyers will help you work through financing and appraisal issues so your transaction can stay within the contract time constraints.

Selling a Home in Riverside

Riverside has been named one of the best places to live by Money Magazine.  However, even with this distinction, homes are taking a longer time to sell than they did a few years ago.  Properties are typically marketed for at least three months before the right buyer comes along.  This can cause a homeowner to become anxious and ready to take a lower offer than their property is worth.  Additionally, with the influx of short sales and foreclosures, the process of selling a home in Riverside can be emotionally and financially draining.

Working with a Riverside Realtor

Working with an experienced Riverside realtor with a good reputation will give you an advantage and peace of mind.  However, a real estate broker cannot give you the advice and representation a real estate attorney would. 

The reputation of the Law Offices of Thomas N. Jacobson is well-known to Riverside realtors and brokers, and our cooperation and ability to keep a transaction together is appreciated.  From the minute you enter into a contract, we step in to protect your interests and negotiate the best possible terms for you.
