Ep 26 The First 48

Washington County, Pennsylvania. 15 miles south of Pittsburgh. 9:37 PM. A call comes in from your realtor. Tired and exhausted from the day, he softly exclaims, “CONGRATULATIONS! YOUR OFFER HAS BEEN ACCEPTED!” Excitedly, you hang up the phone. As you attempt to fall asleep that night, you find yourself wide awake with giddiness and joy knowing that your offer has been accepted and you just bought a house. BUT, in your euphoric state of glee, your mind begins to wonder. “What’s next in the home buying process…how much money do I bring to closing…when should I order the movers to come get my stuff…how do I get the names of the utility companies…when do I get the inspection scheduled…did I request an inspection in my offer…” Your mind is filled with those questions and so many more. Today, we lay out what are the key things to accomplish as the buyer (and the seller) in the first 48 hours after your offer has been accepted.
