Buyer Services

When it comes to buying a home, there are a lot of factors to consider. The following four critical Home Buyer Tips can help you in making a decision on what home to buy and where:

Establish your price range. Before shopping for your new home, shop for the right mortgage. It’s recommended to get pre-approved by your actual lender rather than just pre-qualified, so you know exactly the price range you can afford.
Know the neighborhood. Cruise through Sunday open houses in several different neighborhoods throughout town to get a sense of all the homes within your price range.
Consider the school rule. Home value appreciation is often enhanced by quality schools in the area, while those schools with a bad reputation can end up stifling market value appreciation. Even if you don’t have children, it’s worth buying where school quality is high.
Cover your bases. When making a purchase offer on a house, be sure to include contingencies for mortgage financing, in the event that the house is not appraised at your offer price. It’s also important to include your approval of a professional inspection report on the house, to avoid getting stuck buying what could turn into a money pit.

If a listing displays "Short Sale/Subject to Lender Approval" then that listing has been identified by the seller and the listing broker as a "short sale". This means that, at the listed price, the proceeds from the sale may not be adequate to pay all liens and costs of sale. Any offer made that does not fully cover the existing amount(s) owed to the lienholder(s) plus the costs of sale could be subject to lienholder approval, which approval may be exercised at the sole and exclusive discretion of the lienholder(s).
