Charlotte NC Area Fannie Mae Home Path Guidelines

Okay, so you think you’ve found “the perfect home” – and it’s a Fannie Mae property! Well, be prepared to act quickly because, while every market is different, Charlotte NC area Fannie Mae properties continue to receive multiple offers. So talk to your real estate agent about how to submit an offer. He or she will work with you to prepare an offer and evaluate many factors before suggesting a suitable amount.

Factors to be considered include:

• How long has the home been on the market and what is it’s current condition?

• What is the current market like?

• When rates are lower, more buyers are apt to make an offer and, possibly, submit higher bids.

• Multiple offers can influence the price, often pushing it higher. Therefore, be prepared to make your highest and best offer the first time.

• Does the home you want have features you believe may be in strong demand?

• Fannie Mae won’t accept any offers until a property has been listed for at least three business days.

• If you are planning on living in the house, you’re in luck. Fannie Mae only considers offers from owner occupants or public entities for the first 15 days a property is listed. A written offer is the basis of any real estate transaction. Every offer on a Fannie Mae property must include:

1) A complete standard local or state contract.

2) A complete Fannie Mae Real Estate Purchase Addendum.

3) Earnest money – Earnest money helps show a seller you are serious. When a contract is accepted, the earnest money is deposited with the title company, escrow company or listing broker and will be applied towards the down payment and closing costs at the closing. In addition, it is strongly encouraged that an offer includes proof of funds (if cash offer) or pre-approval (if financing) and is a requirement for seller’s final acceptance
