Buying a home requires careful consideration. After all, it’s one of the most important purchases and assets you’ll acquire. Yet, the pace of the current market requires buyers act quickly when a property comes to market that suits their needs. How can buyers strike that balance? Berkshire Hathaway Broker Henri Gourd advises:

“Getting the right house in the face of stiff competition all comes down to being prepared. Not only should you be pre-qualified (or better yet, pre-approved), but you need to know your target market. Go to open houses; track how much homes in your market actually sold for, so you are confident in your offer. Buy with your head and not with your heart.”
