| Do I get earnest money back if my mortgage falls through on closing day?



Q: “Do I get earnest money back if my mortgage falls through on closing day?”

A: It depends! First of all, get it in writing. Your contract will decide whether or not you get that money back.

In most cases, you can expect your earnest money back if there are issues with the home inspection, appraisal, title, or mortgage. But if you don’t meet the deadlines (or change your mind), you might not!

Questions every homebuyer should ask



As a homebuyer, there are a set of questions you’re always advised to consider before committing and making an offer. Some more obvious, and some less so.

Keep these 5 questions in mind before buying your new home:

🗝 How old is the roof?
🗝 How old are the appliances?
🗝 What’s included in the sale?
🗝 How much will utilities cost me?
🗝 Is the house susceptible to natural disasters?

Knowing the answers to this upfront will save you time, money, stress, and headache in the long run. Don’t overlook them.

Why do I need home inspection when my bank is having the house appraised?



A Home inspection determines whether the house itself has any hidden problems that could become costly surprises down the road. The inspection report provides you with an expert assessment on the condition of the home and evaluates its structure and various systems within it.

You’re probably thinking: Is a home inspection required? In most cases, it is not required, but rather optional. Do I recommend a home inspection? Absolutely!

The purpose of an appraisal, on the other hand, is to set the current value of a home so that a lender may determine how much it can loan to the buyer. The appraiser looks at similar properties in the area (Comparables) and the prices at which they were sold to set the value of the house.
