5 tips to ease your mind when buying a home:

  1. Know your budget: Knowing how much realistically you can afford with all the extra’s that come with owning a home.

    • Internet / Cable costs

    • Utilities

    • Property Taxes (if applicable)

    • Transportation if needed

  2. Make a needs vs wants list: This is going to help you envision the needs that the home must meet and others that would be a perk. Having the list when you view homes allows you to see if it meets your needs.

  3. Mortgage pre-approval: This helps you determine what your maximum purchase price can be.

  4. Know the housing market: This is when a REALTOR® really becomes helpful, they can give you advice regarding the market. They are also able to see other homes in the area that have sold.

  5. Be aware of additional costs: Closing  costs average 3% of the purchase price.
