Buying a House? Third Time’s a Charm!

In this market, never give up! Anything is possible…
After three tries, my client finally won the contract on her dream home! Anything is possible during these real estate deals with the dysfunctional real estate market we are now experiencing. SO MANY DEALS ARE CANCELLED during the escrow period due to financing difficulties, multiple offers or inspection problems, that many homes come back on the market for a 2nd or 3rd shot. Just because you lose out on a house you are bidding on does not necessarily mean you are out of luck.
Lessons learned? If you find a house you love, put in a strong offer…if you lose out, don’t give up until escrow closes…and be ready to resubmit that offer if the house comes back on the market. AND…Make sure YOU are ready to close so your deal doesn’t fall out.

I am a Realtor in Gilbert, AZ, working with clients throughout the Phoenix Metro area. I am lucky to love what I do and appreciate the difference I can make in people's lives.
In a previous life, I was a rocket scientist - really! - but decided to step away from corporate America to be a Mom to my four boys. Found it hard to do bake sales, so I ran a small independent programming business instead.
Flash forward...I am now a single mom and I face many, many challenges everyday. I am living through the hardships that many are facing in this economy. These experiences have motivated me to help other people in my shoes.
I have teamed up with Dean Ouellette to form the East Valley Team - the best darn team in the Valley. Check out our site at http://www.EastValleyTeam.com. I spend way too much time on YouTube - check ou tmy channel at http://www.youtube.com/klavanway
