Contingent means any term in your Spring Texas real estate contract that must be met or satisfied before the purchase of your Spring Texas home can be completed.
Typical contingencies include financing and the sale of the buyer’s other home. The home must meet your lender’s underwriting requirements of condition and appraised value. And as a borrower, you must be approved by the lender for the financing.
Sellers want to feel comfortable that the sale of their home is going to go through. The less contingencies your offer contains the more favorable your offer will be received because there are less conditions that need to be met.

Jill Wente is hands down the best real estate agent in Spring Texas and certainly the best we have ever used. She has represented us as a buyer and seller and then most recently a buyer again the Spring TX area. She helped us figure out what would fit our needs today and what our needs would be 5 and 10 years from now. She was always thinking about future resale value and guided us in the process of making a wise financial decision. She negotiated hard for us and treated our money as if it was her money. She was always available and worked around our schedule. If you are looking for someone with unparalleled knowledge of the Spring TX area look no further, she's the one you want on your side. I LOVE our new home but if I ever move again, Jill Wente will be who I call. read less
