READY - SET - BUY

WHETHER THE HOME YOU ARE ABOUT TO BUY IS NEWLY BUILT OR PREOWNED - ESTABLISHING YOUR PRIORITIES EARLY IN THE HOUSEHUNTING PROCESS IS VITAL!

• Identify FAMILY priorities: Begin with a family discussion of priorities, a "must list". Establish a price range and mortgage amount that you can qualify for. Determine how long you expect to live there and its location. Select a competent and experienced REALTOR.
• Define INDIVIDUAL priorities: Identify privacy needs, family and individual activity requirements, and space needs to accommodate your current and anticipated lifestyles and preview homes that fit those priorities as closely as possible.
• Establish MONETARY priorities: Expect some anxiety - it's normal whether you are a first time buyers or veteran movers. Avoid "qualification anxiety" by meeting with a lender early-on so that you know what price range you can qualify for and search with your REALTOR in an appropriate range.
