We are seeing some craziness with multiple offers on properties…some over 30 offers on one home! St. Petersburg has always been a desirable destination for folks. CNBC says it’s one of the top 10 cities to retire to in the nation, and St. Pete has an overwhelming amount of press on it’s parks, beauty, and affordability.
Now with Covid-19, hundreds of large city dwellers, are moving to smaller towns. Who needs to live in a mecca if all the stores and restaurants are closed, right? So how do you get a house in a situation like this? You jump on it the minute it hits the market and get an offer in as soon as possible. There is also an addendum called the Escalation Clause which can head your bets if you should get in a multiple offer situation. Please contact me if you would like more information on this.
So how do you buy a house in Florida from out of state? You hire a Buyers Agent like Beau Lucas or Clifford Clavel from the St. Petersburg International Group to help you. We visit the property you are interested in, and do Custom Buyer Videos for you. These are very detailed custom buyer videos so you can see not only the house in it’s entirety, but also the neighborhood. Are there powerlines? Flood zones? Shabby looking houses next door?!
Please give Beau or Clifford a call. We are here to help you to buy a house in Florida from out of state. St. Petersburg International Group is here to make it easy. We also have a staff of realtors who speak 12 languages if you prefer to have a realtor who speaks your native language.
Cheers!
