Buying the Right House at the Right Time
10 years ago
What should I do to find the right home at the right price?
A tip that will help you get the home you want is to be financially prepared before you start house hunting. Here are two key points:
-
Find a motivated lender. Ask your REALTOR® (choose one who is an experienced Home Buyer Representative) to refer one or two reputable lenders to you. Study up on basic terms so you’ll be able to choose the loan that will be the best deal for your situation.
-
Get pre-APPROVED, not just pre-QUALIFIED for a loan. You’ll have more power to negotiate because the sellers know you can close on the transaction.
