"You Asked Questions"
"You helped us target what we were looking for and then showed us many houses in a short period of time. In conversation, you asked questions and made comments that helped us pinpoint issues we had not considered. We felt there were several occasions where you really went above and beyond the call of duty - from stopping to get Olivia some juice, to loaning us things from your home to help us get settled in. We appreciated your concern and hard work!"
Josh and Sarah Blumenshine

Buyers Remorse >The Blues of Buyers
Here is an illustration of what you might go through as a homebuyer when the real estate agent calls to say that your offer has just been accepted.
Although you are ecstatic when your agent congratulates you, your initial euphoria may be short-lived if you begin to have second thoughts about the purchase. You may look at the amount of cash required for the down payment and closing costs, and feel that you won't be able to enjoy a restaurant meal or a shopping spree for months! The mortgage added to the interest payments over thirty years seems like an outrageously high sum. Finally, you stare at the inspector's report and convince yourself that the roof will blow off and every major system will fail the day after you move in. You're in a frenzy. You ask yourself, "What am I doing?"
If you begin having doubts about your home purchase, the wisest approach is simply to relax! These feelings are so common that they have been given a name--"Buyer's Remorse." "Buyer's Remorse" is almost always a temporary malady, so please call your real estate agent if you are having an extreme attack. Your agent has experience in helping clients through the home-buying jitters.
