The 5 Reasons A Real Estate Kitchener Deal Falls Through

 Many buyers and sellers fear a situation will fall through. While it is rare,  there are some instances where real estate Kitchener deals do not work out. When something happens to an offer, it is disappointing for both the seller and the seller. There are things we can do to ensure a positive outcome when negotiating a real estate deal. 


Here are five of the most common reasons a real estate deal will fall through:


FINANCING


Until your mortgage is not approved, the offer cannot proceed. This is easily prevented through pre-approvals. Buyers who are pre-approved for a mortgage are less likely to be rejected and the deal is guaranteed easily.

 As a buyer, you can also benefit from having pre-approved, as many sellers will opt for a pre-approval over a regular deal if they are not so confident sellers. It is a win-win for both the parties- buyers and the sellers, as pre-approval can really ease the entire process and avoid disappointment on both sides.


HOME INSPECTIONS 

A home inspection can bring something up that can cause a buyer to turn away from the deal. This situation can be avoided by the buyer getting an inspection before placing their home for sale. The great thing about doing pre-inspection is that the buyer can avoid surprises and correct anything that needs attention.

 Also, an inspection can help the agent price the home accordingly, as well as be transparent about any potential issues. When negotiating an offer, build trust. Buyers always appreciate when a home is already inspected, as it saves them money and hassle and gives them peace of mind. 


CONDITIONAL OFFERS AND INABILITY TO SELL CURRENT HOME

A conditional offer is when there is a condition that needs to be met for the sale to go through. Conditional offers include financing, home inspections, and the sale of the current home. Thankfully, the first two are something the seller can prevent through pre-approvals and doing their own inspection to avoid conditional offers. However, one that sometimes occurs is the buyer is not able to sell their current home. As a result, the buyer will back out since they could not sell their home to purchase the new one. It is up to the home sellers whether to or not to accept conditional offers. An experienced realtor will walk you through the market and thoroughly discuss potential issues with an offer, including the risks of any conditions. 


ISSUES WITH CLOSING DOCUMENTS

Many first-time buyers and sellers, or infrequent buyers and sellers, can be quite shocked at what goes into the closing process. The closing process is one of the reasons working with a realtor is important since there are a lot of documents to compile and sign. It is rare that there is an issue with closing documents, but sometimes things like liens or debts, finance surprises, and missing forms do happen. A realtor can help connect you with an attorney and walk you through what to expect with closing, so you are prepared.


BUYER CHANGES THEIR MIND

A buyer can withdraw their deal anytime before it is accepted by the seller. Once the offer is accepted, a buyer can always back out, but only at the risk of losing what they already deposited. Although,  The deposit makes this situation way less likely to happen. However, in extreme circumstances, buyers have changed their minds and it’s not impossible. Whether you are the buyer or the seller in a situation where there is a change of plan after an offer is accepted, an experienced realtor will help guide you through the process.

Coronavirus and Kitchener Waterloo Real Estate

  It’s been a struggle to watch our local real estate Kitchener market largely put on freeze under the state of emergency. Our business sector like so many others has been deeply affected by the coronavirus. Furthermore, prior to the spread of the virus inside of Canada, Kitchener-Waterloo was on pace for another record-setting year in the growth of property value. Now, some of those gains are already in question and maybe diminishing. In short, the market is in a state of flux until we are able to sort out a path forward for the economy to start. We will continue to be providing updates on the local market throughout this unfolding development. Keeping Things In Perspective… Business aside, we can be so thankful for our healthcare system. Our doctors, nurses, and support staff have been asked to deal with a tremendous crisis. We have our busy days in real estate but reading about the strain our healthcare system is being put under keeps that in perspective, their efforts are heroic.
