Buying? If you are looking to buy a home, my knowledge of current listings, market trends, and local neighborhoods gives you a distinct advantage in your search. Together, we can avoid the many potential pitfalls. We will determine the most suitable layout of the home you are looking for as well as the neighborhood that is the best fit for you and your family's living needs. Home buying is one of the biggest decisions most of us make in our financial lives, and I will help you make the right one.
BUYING TIPS
Define what you want and need. Many considerations go into determining what you want and need. Location, home size, does the area offer the services you need?
Determine what you can afford. Next, begin shopping around for a pre-approved mortgage. While interest rates are often very close from one institution to another, a few points can make thousands of dollars difference.
Begin looking for homes. This website will help save time looking for homes. Once you find homes you want to take a tour of in person, call me and let's set up an appointment.
Make an offer. This can be a very difficult and trying time since both parties have totally different goals. In most cases it is better to have a third party negotiate the offer. If you have any personal interaction with the homeowner, don't give out any information about your move, your current housing status, financial status or your feelings about their property - positive or negative.
Once an offer has been accepted, you'll want an expert inspection of the home. While a few walks through your potential dream home will reveal much about the home, it is a good idea to have a professional inspect items in his or her area of expertise.
Finally, the closing. Closing is where funds are disbursed and ownership changes hands. If the mortgage, title work, homeowners insurance and other items necessary under local and state laws are not completed and brought to the closing table, the closing may not happen on time or at all. To mitigate against any trouble, have the peace of mind of a real estate professional working on your behalf.
Home buying can be a stressful, time consuming, arduous task without the help of an experienced real estate professional. Contact me today and together we can start you on the road to home ownership.
