When you’re ready to put an offer on a home, there are a few different things you can do to make it more attractive to the seller. One way is to include a financing waiver in your contract.
Let’s talk about a financing waiver. Buyers who wish to present a stronger offer can choose to elect an option in the as-is contract that waives all of their financing contingencies. This means that if for any reason if their loan is denied that cannot be a reason for terminating the contract.
The waiver is a great way to present a solid offer to the seller, and it also protects the buyer in case they are unable to obtain financing. It’s important to note that the waiver is not a loan commitment, and the buyer is still taking on all of the risks associated with obtaining financing.
If you are thinking about submitting an offer with a financing waiver, be sure to speak with a real estate agent and lender ahead of time to make sure you understand all of the risks.
