The Los Angeles real estate market is on fire right now. Here are 5 tips to help you get your offer accepted in this competitive market: <br /> <br />1. Get pre-approved with a lender at Openlistings.com <br /> <br />2. Be flexible when finding your "dream" home. Tradeoffs need to be made to find the best price and get the highest value for your home. <br /> <br />3. Include a personal letter with your offer. Offers with a personal letter are 2x more likely to be accepted! <br /> <br />4. Do your full research on your prospective home. Drive by your new home during the day and at night to ensure you don't come across any unexpected surprises. <br /> <br />5. Make a strong first offer. Use the Open Listings comps tool to craft a strong offer for the seller. <br /> <br />These are just 5 tips we wanted to share with first-time home buyers for getting your offer accepted in a competitive market. <br /> <br />For any further questions please reach out to us via email at support@openlistings.com
