TIPS
Buying a home requires a lot of thought…and action! When it comes time to buy a home, most people already have a pretty good idea of the type of residence they’re looking for, such as a single-family unit, a duplex or a multiple-unit dwelling. Chances are they also have a good idea of their price range. Buying a home can be much easier with a bit of planning and by taking a closer look at your specific needs. For example, what are the municipal taxes for the area and what services are available?
Here Are Some Steps To Get You Started: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
Keep track of your credit report Prepare for your home purchase Develop a budget Get your financial picture into focus Find ways to start saving now Learn common real estate terminology Learn about mortgage qualifications Get mortgage offer comparisons Compare housing types Check listings & prices online
Finding and choosing a real estate agent is another smart move. These professionals will dedicate their time and effort to finding the exact type of home that you’re looking for. By having a realtor do all the preliminary legwork for you, you won’t spend valuable time visiting properties that don’t suit your needs. But real estate agents aren’t mind readers. That means you should be able to provide your realtor with as much information as possible. When you first sit down with him or her, outline your requirements: the type of neighbourhood you’re looking for, the approximate lot size, as well as the type of home and the number of rooms. Also, make sure to mention any other important features that you’re looking for such as a specific heating or ventilation system. All this information will help you narrow down the search to those homes that can meet your needs. Once you’ve decided on a particular property, your realtor will submit a purchase bid to the owner or developer (in the case of a new building). This bid may be conditional, such as requesting that certain elements be left in the home, such as the dishwasher, vertical blinds or decorative items.
