Buying a home

Purchasing a property is one of the biggest financial investments you can make. It is best to know what you are looking for, where you want to look, and why you are looking to buy. Knowing the answers to these questions will help you have a strong start to your home search.

Before you start looking at properties, it is best to have a financial snapshot of what you are able to spend. How do you accomplish this? Sitting down with a lender to get pre-approved. This helps narrow down your home search even more, and will let you look at homes that fit within your price range/budget.

Choosing an agent is an important decision! Your agent needs to understand your needs/wants, have knowledge of the market you are looking to purchase in, be a strong negotiator, and have strong organization skills to ensure all the paperwork you need to submit an offer is taken care of.
