San Antonio Texas Real Estate Agent Releases Top Ten Tips for Buying a Home in a Weekend

Feb. 6, 2011 - PRLog -- San Antonio, TX - Texas real estate agent Kurt Hudspeth, who specializes in new homes in San Antonio, Austin and New Braunfels, releases a free report for home buyers entitled Top Ten Tips for Buying a Home in a Weekend.

Hudspeth, who works with all types of buyers from military families to custom home buyers, says that fluctuations in the real estate and job markets nationwide have led many families to relocate to San Antonio for job or cost of living purposes.

He says that when there is a timetable to adhere to for buyers to start a new job, often the most efficient way to purchase a home is to fly in and do it in a weekend.

"It takes some preparation and a good deal of communication to make this happen, but it actually makes the home buying process easier on buyers when it can be compressed to a shorter time period."

Hudspeth says the benefits of committing to a shortened time frame for decision making is that it focuses the mind and encourages decisiveness.

"A common misconception is that making a quick offer means you are sacrificing finding your dream home or not getting a very good deal. The opposite is actually true."

He says that finding a dream home is simply a matter of preparation, and in his experience, buyers get the best deal when they can show they are serious. Whether a buyer is dealing with custom San Antonio builders or a private homeowner, Hudspeth says sellers know the most serious buyer is one who is preapproved and will only be in town for two days.

"The limited time frame helps both buyer and seller focus on what's really important."
