“..he is honest and forthright.”
"Congratulations on your move to Lancaster County. We just moved here in October of last year and find it a beautiful place to live. Greg Weaver was our real estate agent – we picked him because he is a biker, like my husband, and found him more than willing to go “above and beyond the call” for us. We believe he is honest and forthright. As the market here seems to be a seller’s market (IMHO) it is not easy to find a house. Our experience with Greg was that he worked hard for us and listened to what we wanted and needed. And we did eventually find a nice house through him.

Making An Offer >Good Faith Deposits
After many months of searching, you have found your ideal house. You are a little older and a little wiser now, so you want to give the impression that you are serious without appearing to be too eager. What should you do? In the marketplace, "money talks."
There is no absolute rule about how much "good-faith" deposit you should put down--but it is a tool to make your point with the seller. The typical $1,000 will hold many homes for you, except in larger-home markets where it may be critical for you to show that you are an especially serious and able buyer. You don't want to make a deposit that is too large in case there is a problem getting your money back, but if your offer is substantially below the asking price, a larger deposit--$5,000 or $10,000--might influence the seller.
If you make a low deposit with your offer, be sure to provide for an increased deposit when the offer is accepted or upon removal of the contingencies.
