Emily and Sam Erickson had been actively looking for their second home for around six weeks. Finally, they could land the fifth house they put an offer on and purchase the home at their asking price. The house they purchased was their second home, and they are turning their first home into an investment home. They are planning on renting the home long-term.

They had difficulty buying their second home, with homes going on and off the market in three days or less. Luckily, their real estate agent and home lender were on the ball and were able to get their offer in quickly, securing their second home.
