Most subdivisions have CC&Rs (Covenants, Codes and Restrictions). Studies of Pottsboro demonstrate that these carefully to make sure they are not too restrictive for your needs or create excessive building costs. Pottsboro Homebuyers QuandryWhen you find the home you want to buy you may make an offer contingent upon the sale of your existing Pottsboro. In a Seller’s Market, offers with such contingencies are not well received because the seller must remove his home from the market while you sell yours. However there are times when this kind of offer is successful, even in the Pottsboro market. A backup strategy might be to put in your offer with a very long escrow giving yourself time to sell your home. Very few sellers will accept these kinds of contingencies or long escrows if your house is not already on the market.
