GETTING READY FOR YOUR HOME PURCHASE

By Sam Erickson Homeownership is back on the rise, and you might be thinking about putting down some roots and taking on a mortgage. It can be a daunting task, but following a few simple steps can help put you in the best position to be successful with your home purchase.

Real Estate Specialist Sutton Group West Coast Realty

First, check into your credit score. Along with your income, your debt and your assets, this is one of the primary factors determining how much money you will be able to get from the bank. This is essentially a rating of how good you are at paying your bills, so you’ll want to shore it up after getting a report. Even a small problem like an old, unpaid traffic ticket can reduce the credit score and can easily be taken care of. It’s best to tackle this problem several months before you start seriously looking to buy a home.

COWICHAN STATION - 24.27 ACRES • 1911 Character Home, 4 bed, 2 bath, 3800 sq ft • Fir Floors, Bay Windows, Dormers, Wainscoting • 9’ Ceilings, Wood Furnace, F/P Insert, Oil Furnace • Easy Hwy Access, Close to Golf Course & Marinas • Level, Fenced & Cross Fenced, Organic, Private • Full Height Unfinished Basement, 40x30 Shop

$699,000

Do a home finance audit. A home is a major commitment. Along with the actual mortgage come insurance, property taxes and any home repairs. You can’t just call a landlord in the middle of the night to fix a problem; you’ll be responsible.

One easy way to do this is assiduously to track all of your income and expenses for two weeks, including small things like an extra coffee and even your tips. This will let you know if there is any wiggle room in your finances where you can cut back to increase savings or make payments on a house.

DUNCAN TOWNHOME

• 3 Bed, 2 Bath, 1188 sq ft • End Unit, Extra Parking • Laminate & Vinyl Flooring • Family and Pet Friendly Strata • Close to schools, shopping, trails

Do your research. There are a lot of things you’ll have to research in order to be an informed buyer. First, you’ll need to build a team of trusted people to help you with your home purchase. This includes a real estate agent, a mortgage broker or lender, and a home inspector. In addition to researching your team, you’ll want to do a lot of research on the market. Individual home markets differ, and knowing what the trends are in your market can give you the tools to make an advantageous offer.

• 1990 Townhome, 3 Bed, 2 Bath B • High Quality Laminate Main and Up hen/Dining Room/Bathrooms • New Grouted Vinyl in Kitche • New Baseboards and Backyyard Fencing • Family and Pet Friendly Com Complex • Close to Town, Schools, Bus Bus, New Mall

Finally, get pre-approved for a loan. A pre-approval—which is different than a pre-qualification—is a guarantee from a lender that you will be able to acquire a loan in that amount. This is key with sellers, particularly those who are choosing from multiple offers. It provides them with assurance that your deal won’t fall through.

A home is the biggest purchase most people make in their life. As such, it deserves extra time, attention and research to make sure that you make the right decision. If you do the right kind of work beforehand, once you get your keys you’ll have nothing to worry about.

PET TIP:

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH YOUR PETS WHEN YOU GO ON HOLIDAYS. TO FIND RELIABLE PEOPLE TO LOOK AFTER YOUR ANIMALS WHETHER IT IS BOARDING OUT OR COMING INTO YOU HOME IS VERY DIFFICULT. I HAVE A LOT OF RESCUES AND I HAVE TO HAVE SOMEONE COME INTO OUR HOME AND BE HERE 24/7. I PAY WELL AND ONLY GET EXCELLENT PEOPLE. PREPARATION IS HUGE MAKING SURE VETS ARE INFORMED IN CASE OF EMERGENCIES, THE FOOD IS STOCKED UP AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, MEDICATIONS WON’T BE SHORT, SHAVINGS FOR THE HORSES, ETC, ETC. WHAT EVER YOU DO, REALLY CHECK OUT WHO YOU HIRE TO LOOK AFTER YOUR PETS. NOTHING IS WORSE THEN COMING HOME TO A DISASTER. I’VE DONE THAT AND IT IS HORRIBLE.
