Tallahassee, FL (WTXL) -- When it comes to buying a home, you can never be too prepared. 

WTXL ABC 27's Christine Souders sat down with local realtor, Rebekah Rivers, to learn all about mastering the "seller's market."

Buyer's Cheat Sheet for a Seller's Market:

  1. Be on call. Houses are selling quickly. 
  2. Bring the paperwork: You will need a pre-APPROVAL letter or proof of funds, not promises. 
  3. Waive the what-ifs! Limit the contingencies (i.e. financing, inspections, etc.)
  4. Cast a wide net: Look for an up-and-coming neighborhood
  5. Don't waste your time low-balling.
