This includes proximity to the lake, proximity to a town, homeowners insurance requirements, and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that there\u2019s no better feeling than finding that perfect lake home. However, you may run into problems if you are bidding for the lake home against another home buyer. This is especially so if that home buyer is offering to pay in cash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following are a few tips that you should use in order to compete for your dream lake home against someone willing to pay in cash:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Get a pre-approval<\/strong> \u2013 You should be pre-approved for a mortgage before you begin looking for a lake home. This way, you know exactly how much you can spend and won\u2019t waste your time looking at homes that you won\u2019t be able to afford. There\u2019s nothing more frustrating than finding your dream lake home and realizing, after the fact, that you won&#8217;t qualify for the price of that home. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bankrate.com\/finance\/mortgages\/do-you-need-mortgage-preapproval.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Having a pre-approval<\/a> on hand will also show the homeowner that you will be able to pay for the lake home. A lake homeowner who&#8217;s faced with two bidders, one with cash in hand and the other with nothing, is going to choose the bidder who can prove that he or she can pay quickly with no problems.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Have proof of funds<\/strong> \u2013 In addition to having your mortgage pre-approval for the lake homeowner to see, you should also provide proof of funds. This is to show that you can afford the down payment and the monthly mortgage payments. While a cash payment might still look a little more attractive to the owner, showing the owner that you have the means to pay for your pre-approved mortgage is a good start.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Personalize your bid<\/strong> \u2013 Provide some information about yourself and why you want the home. You can swing the seller\u2019s emotions into your direction by telling him or her a little about yourself. For example, explain why you want the lake home. Maybe it reminds you of a vacation home you used to visit when you were a child, and you want your own children to have a similar experience. This could help make the seller favor you. Especially if they have no idea who the other bidder is, or if the bidder is simply someone that\u2019s buying up property in order to flip it at a later date. There\u2019s nothing wrong with tugging on the seller\u2019s heartstrings. Especially since you\u2019re trying to get him or her to come down on the price.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Offer more<\/strong> \u2013 If the lake home truly is the perfect lake home in your eyes, then maybe you would be willing to offer a little bit more for the home than what the seller is asking for (as long as your pre-approved mortgage will cover it). Most buyers who are looking to buy property in cash aren\u2019t willing to go higher than the asking price. This means you\u2019ll have a better chance of outbidding them. You can even have an escalation clause added to your bid. This basically gives authorization to your real estate agent to offer a specific amount above the best offer that the lake home seller receives. This is an excellent way to gain an advantage in any potential bidding war and shows the seller that you are serious about the lake home. If you decide on an escalation clause, just realize that you may end up overpaying for the lake house.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Waive the home inspection contingency<\/strong> \u2013 If you\u2019re very serious about the lake home, pay for a home inspection before you make an offer. If everything looks okay, offer to waive the <a href=\"http:\/\/homebuying.about.com\/od\/homeshopping\/qt\/What-Is-A-Home-Inspection-Contingency.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">home inspection contingency<\/a>, which would favor the seller.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Waive the appraisal contingency<\/strong> \u2013 If you can afford to cover the gap between a low appraisal of the lake home and the offer you have made, offer to waive the appraisal contingency.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you find the lake home of your dreams but are competing against someone willing to pay cash, don\u2019t give up just yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind that at the end of the day, the seller of the lake house usually only cares about how much money he or she will get. Not whether it\u2019s in cash or if it\u2019s financed. While cash will always be slightly more attractive, you can still win over the seller by using these tips.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A lake home can be a great investment, whether you\u2019re looking for a vacation home for your family to enjoy, or a primary residence.
