Home buyers who are eager to close the deal before the tax credit expires should be prepared to deal only with lenders who will respond to the need for speed.
Even buyers without A-plus credit should be able to get a loan. “If you go to enough lenders, you can typically get a loan even with a low credit score. The terms, of course, are not as attractive,” says Spencer Rascoff, chief operating officer of Zillow.com.
Another possibility is to propose a lease-purchase deal or land contract to the seller. If the deal is structured properly, both buyer and seller could walk away winners.
