What Easy Home Buying Resources Prevent Disaster?

Buying a home is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. Get it right and life will be closer to perfect. Get it wrong and you will have created a disaster. Our resources – and we have two eBooks on home-buying for you to download – will help you to get it right.

5 Questions To Ask

If this will be the first home you buy we have five questions you should ask. Our guide Five Questions for Choosing a Home gives you some of the answers:

• How to get your credit score
• How to figure your home-buying costs
• Thinking about how long you are likely to stay in your new home

How long you might stay is really important. Ideally you want to stay long enough for your home to appreciate in value - at least long enough to cover the costs you laid out to buy and the costs you’ll incur to sell. Did you know that, according to the National Association of Realtors, the second most common reason people sell a home is because they bought the wrong one to start with. Don't make that mistake.

We are here to help you think about mortgages, buying costs and all the other factors, so as well as downloading the book come and see us to discuss things.

Beginners Guide To Home Buying

The second eBook we have for you is The Beginners Guide to the Home Buying Process and it goes into more detail. We cover topics like: 

• Finding the right home
• Getting the right mortgage (there are different sorts and it pays to discuss your options before you start looking for a home)
• Costs many people don’t realize they will incur – these can affect a lot of things, including how soon you can make your new home into your dream home
• Top tips for first-time buyers and how to make your move as low-stress as possible

If you are pre-approved for your mortgage before you start looking for a home you will be ahead of the game. You will be able to focus on exactly the right kind of property and, when you find it, you can write an offer supported by a pre-approval letter. That sort of thing shows the seller you are serious and you have all your ducks in a row.

So please get the guides and then contact us so we can work with you to help you live the American Dream.
