How to help your buyers and clients to make the offer more appealing compared with other offers.
Bridge loan - it can be confusing for clients - we call it flex loan - non contingent offer (can be more appealing)
1 One time close - 5% down of their own money and they have to qualify to pay both mortgage payments
2. Two time close - Bridge loan - 0% down and they don't have to qualify to carry both mortgage payments . It can be a very convenient option.
84% of the time the client didn't have to exercise the program because they sold their home before closing the new one.
Nevertheless it allows them to use the loan program in case their home doesn't sell so fast.
Talk about this on social media and free to connect with Denise.
