Tips For First Time Home Buyers Contact any top agent advertised in this magazine today. They are the most professional local real estate market experts, giving you the utmost confidence in purchasing your first home.
1. Be choosy, but realistic. You may never find the perfect home.
2. Do your homework before looking at homes. Determine exactly what features you want in a home and which are most important to you.
3. Get your finances in order. Examine your credit report & be prepared for down payment or closing cost.
4. Get pre-approved for a mortgage. Talk to a lender NOW – before engaging a REALTOR®.
5. Know your move-in date. When does your lease end? Are you allowed to sublet? How tight is the rental market in your area?
6. Think long-term. Are you looking for a starter home, or something to stay in for a long time? This could influence the type of home you decide to purchase, as well as the type of mortgage terms that might best suit you.
7. Don’t become “house poor”. Buying the biggest home you can afford may leave no money for maintenance, decor, or renovations. Plus, it may make it hard for you to save money for other financial goals.
8. Don’t take chances. Obtain a professional home inspection and, if possible, a warranty from the seller to cover any defect within the first year.

Questions to Ask Every Agent Before Listing Your Home
Page 1
Scan code to shop for homes now!
As encouraging news of the reviving housing market gains momentum, many homeowners will again consider selling their home. If you’re like most sellers, a home is your single largest financial asset, and the commission paid to a real estate professional is substantial. Therefore, you should have high expectations of an agent, and fully understand the strategies and tools they use to market your home. To be sure your home is sold quickly and for the best price, ask an agent these questions before listing your home with them:
1
How will you market my home to local buyers?
4
Real estate remains hyper local. In 2012, the National Association of REALTORS® reported that home buyers only moved about 12 miles from their previous residence. That means there is a very good chance the buyer of your home lives in your town or one nearby. Buying a home is not an impulse purchase and it takes about three months from the time a buyer starts their search to signing a contract. During that time, they continue to work, shop, eat, and play in areas immediately adjacent to your home and community. Ask your agent what their plan is to reach out to that local buyer.
2
How will you market my home to out of market buyers?
Your home’s price and community could attract relocating buyers. Listing your home on one of the many free Internet listing services like Realtor.com, Trulia.com or Zillow.com is a good starting point, much like a phone book listing, but it requires a buyer seek out the site, and sift through search results to find your home, which it’s not an aggressive marketing program. To get the best results, successful agents must use outbound marketing and other forms of media to reach out to buyers in other areas.
3
How will you market my home to other local top agents?
Holding open houses is always a good investment. Both agents and local home shoppers can actually see the unique character of your home versus just looking at online photos. It engages other local agents, which can also bring you a buyer more quickly. Additionally, professional quality printed materials like flyers and postcards keep your home in front of them long after they walk out the door.
What types of media will you use to advertise my home?
In today’s multi-media world advertising is everywhere, and the way consumers find information is constantly changing. Be cautious of agents who use only the web to market your home. Your agent must understand the importance of multiple media, like social media, mobile apps, text codes, local real estate magazines, direct mail and other printed materials to actively reach out to buyers everywhere – not just passively hoping for buyers to find your listing online.
5
How are you going to realistically price my home?
Pricing a home requires an intimate knowledge of the market to get it right. You want to get the best price, but there can be a disconnect between your expectations as a seller and the price for which your home will realistically sell. If an agent overprices your home, it may ultimately sell for less than it would have if priced correctly from the beginning. It could also create conflict with the bank’s appraisal when the buyer tries to secure a mortgage. Ask to see a comparison of list price, sold price, and number of days on market for your agent’s ten most recent transactions. Homes that sit on the market too long and go through multiple price reductions are typically overpriced. Calculate the commission you pay to get your home sold and we think you will agree that you have the right to expect a very aggressive campaign. The best agents in your town will meet or exceed the expectations that we’ve laid out here and you deserve to work with only the best.
