Do I make my offer to the seller subject to financing?

Do I make my offer to the seller subject to financing? Jordan Brewer

The answer to the question depends on the real estate investors. We have some clients that do not make the offer subject to financing. These investors are so confident in their value of the property that they are not concerned about getting financing. They know that they will be able to get financing and in some cases these investors have some capital sitting on the side lines just in case they have to come up with a few dollars to make the deal happen. Typically these investors are more experienced.

Other investors make their offers subject to financing. This way the investor will not lose their earnest money if the deal does not get funding. However, you have to be aware that a seller will be more interested in an offer that is not subject to financing because it shows you are more confident as a real estate investor.
