He’s an attorney, she’s in architectural lighting design. They have been looking for a home “in the Loop” for nine months. Every time they find one they like, within their price range, they plunk down an offer and six other offers come in above asking… sometimes even when they have BID ABOVE ASKING.
But, this darling couple really wants to buy a house. Like many Millennials, they are ready, they are more than pre-qualified, and they have a lump sum of $100,000 for a hefty down payment. They are even, even willing to do some work on a less than perfect house if the price reflects that less-than-perfectness.
Dallas used to be the kind of town where young professionals like this could buy a starter home in a New York minute. What happened? Lack of inventory means they are swooped up, and starter homes are the hottest commodity in real estate right now!
Here are the parameters:
House price $350,000 or could scoot a little higher
$250,000 with some work and they will do work!
Pre qualified perfectly
$100K for down payment
Areas:
Midway Hollow (preferred)
Sparkman
West Hollow
Bishop Arts
Stevens Park
Kessler Park
Wynewood North
Can we help them find a house? Or have any advice as to how they can find one? The lines are wide open!
