On this episode, I answer the following four real estate questions:

1) When applying for a mortgage, I've heard that applying for other types of credit before the mortgage is finalized can hurt your credit. Is this true?

2) We are already in escrow to sell my home, but I'm now having second thoughts on selling. How can I back out of the deal?

3) I recently went to get pre-approved for a home loan. The lender said he can't get me a loan because my credit score is too low. How can I raise my score?

4) My agent is having a hard time selling my home. I just don't think he is the right person for the job. What is the process to fire him?
