7 Tips for First Time Home Buyers

  1.  Get you finances in order before even going to look at homes.  Make sure you have anough for a down payment and closing costs.
  2. Talk to a lender and get pre-qualified for a loan.
  3. Decide when you can actually move.  When is your lease up?
  4. Realize there is no perfect home.  There will be trade-offs to every property.
  5. Don't be tempted to spend more than you can afford.  Remember, there will be recurring costs like insurance, taxes, utilities and maintenance.
  6. Understand the fine print and ask questions.  It's important to understand what you are signing to avoid problems down the road.
  7. Hire a REALTOR® to be your Buyer's Agent.  They can guide you through the whole process and provide invaluable advice.
