If a seller won't cover half, or all closing cost then they don't really want to sell a house. Walk away and you'll most likely be happier, because you'll find a better home and seller. Just one man's opinion.
Or you can bomb a offer because you don't want closing cost help because that seller has to pay the realtor fees also if you poach the sellers agent you can ask for dual agent at 1 to 2 % sellers will love that also.
If the seller doesn't want to do updates (such as fix chipped paint or roof) can buyer agree to do the work after closing? To meet MRPs? Or must it be done before closing?
Veterans considering using their home loan benefit are hearing early on that there are no up-front fees associated with a VA loan, or that closing costs and or up-front fees can be rolled into the loan. This at best misleading or false.
I got money back it's very simple if your a true veteran with a 10% va rated disability ie tinnitus or knees back etc very easy claims you no longer pay funding fees.

Every home will have a due diligence and earnest money to take home off market for inspections. I always recommend encroaching the sellers agent tell them they can represent you for 1 to 2% as it will make the seller happy because they have to pay the realtor fees on va loans.....agent should be happy because now instead of splitting a 5 or 6% he take a full transaction of 3% sellers now usually 1.5% buyers for a 4.5 cut. 9 times out of 10 they will take it. Also hunt down military reology or homes for heros or ask the agent to get qualified so you get money back.......we purchased a 366k home and made back 3k almost and all we paid was 2k for Due Diligence and earnest 525 va appraisal fee 510 home inspection 17$ power transfer 2 25$ water transfer fees at county for home and for irrigation system.... That's all credited back in closing cost or required.
The product is great. I would recommend first time home buyers to get this if they are enlisted to the military active duty, active reserve, or reserve components (officer or general enlisted). The product educates the buyers in the reality of buying a home. If you can afford the time to educate yourself in buying a home, and every buyer and seller should, learn the VA home buying process. Some sellers want to get rid of a "lemon house" the VA product will not tolerate anything of the sort. First time buyers dive in with this as a deterant from getting bamboozled into a home stifled with headache after headache of issues. One thing to keep in mind-get a thorough home inspector to give you a detailed documented list of the home's ailments and upsides. Happy House Hunting/Selling!
whats crazy is veteran untied has all the information they are talking about in this video, and still haven't offered a rough estimate and I'm ready to close
I actually asked for $2,000 in gift funds and for the sellers to pay closing costs and got BOTH! I think they agreed because the property was part of an estate.
Hello! Nice video you have there! By the way; have you used the services from " Vidadsmedia Real income "? (google the exact phrase)? My sister had some business with them and was impressed by their unbelievable treatment when they shared their expertise about generating real income !
This is a hard truth. Believe it or not, closing can be pre approved up the 4 - 5 thousand range. However closing can come, even on a low loan, well under $100,000 .up to or close to$ 10,000, closing. Now insurance can give major cuts, along side what they can push to raise the pre approved/ appraisal loan amount to help accommodate the closing costs.
@Keith Melton - I have a pretty good understanding of the loan process and even I didn't understand anything you were saying. Is there any way that you can read what you wrote over again and clarify it?
@@MakeWay4CJ they must be getting murdered with funding fees ie a disabled veteran doesn't pay that and some lenders don't impose lender fees on veterans such as G Rate this is how you slip behind high closing cost.....you can use lenders like jd Terry for G rate who gives lender credits and then a homes for heros or reology rep it's a credit program from veterans teachers medical first responders sellers and buyers reap the rewards.

Damn people! The closing costs for the veteran can be negotiated into the home costs to cover you paying the closing costs for them. VA loans do not allow closing costs to be rolled into the loan directly this is why the veteran is looking at other options.
> closing costs for the veteran can be negotiated into the home costs to cover you paying the closing costs for them. great plan, until the VA appraisal caps the max loan amount below the list price. seller has to lower their price, or end the contract and start the listing/sales process buyer usually has to walk away because they have no savings (which is why they're using the 0% down VA loan)
@@harrisonwintergreen1147 So you do realize that you're complaining about the VA making sure that the veterans don't't overpay for a house right? Because let's say that the VA did what you wanted them to do - they raised the appraisal cap to the EXACT amount that the seller wanted for the home. So the veteran gives the seller ALL of this money - way more than the house is worth and then starts to pay the mortgage.... Well, unless that veteran stayed in the home for at least 15 years, what they'd find when they went to sell the home is that they paid so much more than what the house was actually worth that they still haven't paid the loan down below it's ACTUAL value! Which means that when they try to sell the house and get the money from the buyer, they'd have to either give ALL of the money that got from the buyer to the bank to pay off the rest of the loan and STILL owe the bank more money (because you wanted the VA to allow them to pay too much for the home) OR they'd have to give the bank almost all of the money for the sale and have barely any money left over for themselves (which in both cases would defeat the purpose of selling the home). So basically what you're complaining about the VA protecting their veterans..... and that doesn't make sense.

The solution is not to reject the offer (which penalizes the Veteran) but rather you should counter their offer to make sure you NET what are looking to get for your house. Your real estate agent probably will not charge commission on the portion that you pay on the Buyer's behalf. Non-VA buyers will often ask for credits too.
no, the real estate agent is not gonna give up their commission for buyers concessions. maybe a little but. obviously you don't understand that its more than just putting a sign in the yard and doing paperwork. its constant back and forth negotiations and advertising . the real estate agent doesn't work for free. do you work for free?
