Short Sale Sellers - When can you buy again?

In most cases, VA buyers who went through a short sale (listing sold) can purchase a home again after just 12 months. For non-VA buyers who previously sold a home through a short sale, there's typically a 3-7 year waiting period before you'll be approved to buy again.

These are changing times! To be confident in your ability to purchase, you need a high-quality, local-to-you Realtor & lender!

Contact your local Realtor for more information!

Buyer Myths - I'll call the listing agent...

In Lancaster County, we are blessed with amazing cooperation between all real estate agencies that are part of our local board (Lancaster County Association of Realtors) - http://www.lcaronline.com

Although morally & ethically, a listing agent CAN choose to represent buyers in a transaction, I typically recommend that you choose your own Buyer representation. There is minimal - if any- fee for you to have your own representation, to ensure YOUR interests are best represented as you seek and find the home of your dreams!

Contact us today - we're happy to discuss your options further with you!

Lancaster PA Homes are a GREAT buy right now!

Unbelievable but true - that although it was once nearly impossible to score a detached home for under $150,000, there are now BARGAINS to be had! The higher-end market (over $500,000) has also seen a decline in market values, so RIGHT now is the time to consider moving up in home! Size, desired area, etc...

You can browse all of our market inventory at http://www.Jennifer-King.com

We look forward to helping you make YOUR real estate dreams - your reality!
