BUYING A HOME |
|
| |
Buying a new home is probably the biggest investment you will ever make. Although the process is very exciting it can quickly become overwhelming. |
| |
I can help you determine exactly what you want in a new home and work to find homes that fit those needs. Here's how to start... |

| |
Important tips for buying a home |
| |
|
| |
Make a list of wants and needs. |
| |
When shopping for a home, make a list of features that are important to you. Include towns, purchase price, bedrooms, property size, etc. Prioritize what is important to you and your family! |
| |
|
| |
Find a qualified, caring agent. |
| |
Home sellers won't find you. Buyers require more help with a wider assortment of tasks than sellers. A Buyer needs an agent with knowledge of the homes for sale and other features (like schools) in neighborhoods that interest you. I live and work in Mercer County, NJ. I know the area and can help you with your search for the perfect home. |
| |
|
| |
Make a plan and get pre-qualified. |
| |
The perfect home tends to come along when you least expect it. I'll provide you with valuable advice and can help direct you to other professionals whose services you'll need - like a mortgage broker. When opportunity knocks, being pre-qualified will enable you to jump at the chance to buy your perfect home. |
| |
|
| |
Sign a contract that protects you. |
| |
When you find that perfect home, you need to know that the contract you sign allows you to arrange financials, inspect the home, and negotiate any problems you may uncover. Having an attorney review your contract will protect you and avoid any legal problems. |
| |
|
| |
Get a qualified home inspector. |
| |
Having your future home professionally inspected by a qualified inspector will save you dollars and anxiety! While the home you have selected may appear to be just what you are looking for, you need to be sure that nothing has gone undetected which could make your investment a costly one. |
