If you’re in the market to buy a home, and you want to be moving into that new home this fall or winter, when should you start planning?
Answer: RIGHT NOW!
The idea of buying a home may seem overwhelming, but taking the process step by step makes it much less daunting.
Here’s your immediate action plan:
1. Determine your “needs” versus your “wants” for the new home; needs are non-negotiable such as house/condo/townhome, location, the number of bedrooms. Wants are not “dealbreakers” but are things that you would really like to have to make your home more to your taste, like a newer kitchen or a fenced yard.
2. Check your financial situation to establish your budget. I can connect you with my reputable mortgage partners who will give you expert advice on your purchasing power.
3. If you’re presently renting, check when your lease/rental agreement ends, or if you’re a homeowner, consider whether buying or selling first makes the most sense for you and your family.
4. Let’s you and I set up a meeting to discuss all your options. If you’re wanting to move in the next 6 months, setting up this meeting NOW is key. The process of getting pre-approved, finding the perfect home, perhaps selling your current home and completing the purchase of your new one takes time.
