FIVE QUICK TIPS FOR THE FIRST TIME HOME BUYER
1. Plan to stay put —make sure you’ll be able to stay in your new home for at least 5-7 years.
2. Find out of your credit is good enough to make a purchase. Most banks are looking for a score of 740 or higher right now. FHA loans need a score of 680.
3. Get a professional to help you. Purchasing a home is very personal—a major step in life. Interview three or four real estate agents until you find your comfort level.
4. Do your homework. Check the real estate comparables to find homes in your price range. Identify what’s most important to you in finding a new home. See what matches your wish list. Share that information with your real estate agent to save your time and
5. Get a home inspection. First, you’ll find out if the structure requires repairs demanded by law. And, second, you’ll find out what may need to be changed in the near future (an aging roof or siding, expanding electrical needs) and whether you’ll want to make that additional investment.
