How much can I afford to spend?

Before you even begin looking at homes, it is in your best interest to first establish how large a loan you qualify for. This way you will know what is the price range of the home that you should be looking in and you will not waste your time looking in to the home that you cannot afford.

Pre-Qualifying for a loan is simply estimating the size of the mortgage you can afford. When looking at potential homes, you want to know that you have been pre-approved for a mortgage. A pre-approval is an underwriters official guarantee of a specified loan amount. This certified pre-approval serve as a powerful negotiating tool once you have decided on a home you want to buy. The seller knows that you are serious in your intentions and that you can afford the property.

Do you know what you want?

Whether you are a first-time homebuyer or entering the marketplace as a repeat buyer, you need to ask why you want to buy.

Why use a Real Estate Agent?

Buying and selling real estate is a complex matter. But a basic rule in real estate is that all properties are unique. No two properties -- even two identical models on the same street -- are precisely and exactly alike. Homes differ and so do contract terms, financing options, inspection requirements and closing costs. Also, no two transactions are alike.

In this maze of forms, financing, inspections, marketing, pricing and negotiating, it makes sense to work with professionals who know the community and much more.
