When you are considering selling or purchasing a home, one of the best ways to eliminate unnecessary stressors is to be prepared and to have an expert realtor (and full staff) on your side.
For both buying and selling it’s important to have a realtor that will do extensive research on comparable homes in the area. Knowing “your price” —A price that includes a proper assessment of your home or the one you’ll be purchasing before you even begin to look at houses or to list yours is essential.
Other things to consider ahead of time are the location of the house, neighborhood safety, and available community amenities. Is it near your work, or does it have a sound school system? Is the size of the home right for you? Compromising on size is not recommended.
You should also consider the total cost of the home, like HOA fees, repairs, maintenance, taxes and the mortgage. If you can, it’s best to get pre-
approved for your home loan as this will cut down on the time of purchase, as well as your total loan allocation.
