Home Buying Checklist

 

Now is an ideal time to look for your first home.  Home prices are still at record lows.  Interest rates are still at all-time lows.  As a result, buying a home can result in a monthly payment well below what you pay to rent a home.  There are many factors to consider and steps to take on the road to your next dream home. Below you will find a simple checklist to begin the process:

 

l  Decide how much you can spend.

 

l  Check your credit reports to find out your status.

 

l  Get an idea of how much you can borrow.

 

l  Shop for a mortgage lender.

 

l  Consider getting preapproved for a loan.

 

l  Find a real estate agent.

 

l  Research potential neighborhoods.

 

l  Make a list of features you want in a house.

 

l  Go house hunting.

 

l  Make an offer.

 

l  Get an inspection.

 

l  Consult a lawyer if you desire, or if it’s required in your state.

 

l  Start organizing for your move.

 

I hope this information is useful.
