Buying a home, especially your first home, can be a very exciting time but it also can create stress and anxiety. Here are some tips to help make your home purchase as stress free and exciting as it should be:
1.) Get Pre-Approved before you ever go look at homes. This will allow you to know exactly what you can afford and prevent you from falling in love with a home that is out of your price range.
2.) Work with a qualified Realtor® that knows the area you are interested in. In most deals the commission for the Realtor® representing the buyer is paid by the seller. You want to have someone representing you, with your best interest in mind, that knows the market and the business.
3.) Be ready to move quickly when you find the perfect home for you. That does not mean buy the first home you see but when you get that feeling that this home is the one for you move quickly. In today's market if you do not someone else will because inventory levels are low right now.
4.) Always have a home inspection from an ASHI qualified inspector before you purchase your home.
5.) Get a survey it will cost you a little more upfront but can save you a ton of headaches down the road.
