BUYER TIP | Your maximum approval and your comfortable payment are not always the same number. Before touring homes, compare principal, interest, estimated taxes, insurance, mortgage insurance and association dues. Choose a target payment—and a firm ceiling. A strong home search protects both your buying power and your life after closing.

MONDAY MOVE | Before you list your Metro Detroit home, begin with a professional pricing strategy. The strongest launch considers recent comparable sales, current competition, condition, timing and the terms buyers are using right now. An online estimate cannot see your updates—or your block. Request a property review before you choose the price.

SELLER MATH | The sale price is not the amount a seller takes home. Mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, title and closing charges, concessions, repairs and agreed professional fees can affect net proceeds. Ask for an estimated net sheet when comparing pricing and offer options.

Your inspection uncovered problems—but what can you actually ask the seller to do?

The answer depends on your contract, deadlines, findings and financing. Watch the video before sending a repair request or deciding whether a problem should change the deal.

MARKET LANGUAGE | Active listings show today’s competition. Pending homes show where buyers recently acted, although final terms may not be public. Closed sales show completed transactions and often carry the most weight in pricing analysis. A sound market review uses each category for the question it can actually answer.

FSBO REALITY | Selling it yourself shifts pricing, disclosures, marketing, screening, showings, negotiation and coordination onto the owner. Before going public, assign every responsibility and decide what market result would cause you to adjust or seek help.
