Here’s my full conversation with Khash on how buyers can navigate the market.
Today I’m speaking with my good friend Khash Saghafi from Liberty Home Mortgage. Khash is an experienced lending expert, so I thought he would be a great person to help me talk through the lending process. This is especially important in our crazy seller’s market. I recently heard a statistic that every home has an average of three buyers, and that’s probably a low estimate. Khash and I will give you all the important information you need to navigate this hot market.
