In this video, I walk you through the 8 biggest mistakes buyers make (plus a bonus), and show you how to avoid them so you don’t end up regretting your purchase. 🔑 What You’ll Learn Mistake #1: Skipping pre-approval / full underwriting (this one alone can tank your offer) Mistake #2: Falling in love with the home and ignoring the neighborhood Mistake #3: Waiving inspections / skipping due diligence (yes, people do this!) Mistake #4: Not reading disclosures thoroughly Mistake #5: Assuming disclosures will always be available before an offer Mistake #6: Misunderstanding your true budget (your ceiling is more than just your pre-approval) Mistake #7: Letting emotions rule your decision Mistake #8: Trying to time the market BONUS: Believing “something better will show up” when inventory increases If you’re buying in San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley, San Jose, Castro Valley, the East Bay, or anywhere in the Bay Area, this is one you can’t skip. 📘 Free Resource: Bay Area Home Buyer’s Guide I put together a step-by-step guide that walks you through financing, inspections, disclosures, making competitive offers, and more.

Get this wrong, and you could overpay by $50,000 or more, buy a property with big hidden repair costs, or lose out entirely. I’ve seen it happen—so my goal is to keep that from happening to you. 👍 If you found this helpful...
