So you have decided you are ready to look for a new home...how exciting!! To make the first step easier, let’s take a look at 4 questions you should consider about your new house.
1. Location
Where is your next house going to be located? Some factors that could contribute to this decision could be a daily work commute, a specific school or school district, or family.
2. Type of Property
Is there a specific type of property you are interested in? This can vary from a single-family home, to a townhouse, condo, or villa. It’s important to know which one you desire, because some are only approved for certain financing. For example, not all condos are VA approved.
3. Criteria
Have a list of non-negotiables ready to go. Some factors that you’ll want to include will be the number of bedrooms and bathrooms you desire, whether or not you want a pool, a garage, and so on & so forth.
4. Price Point
By now you may have already spoken with a loan officer to determine this. If so, that is great, but if not, no worries; we can help you. We will want to know the price point range we will want to stay within for your house search.
With those four questions answered, we are able to set up your profile on the MLS and the fun can begin. From this point on, you will start receiving listings of houses on the market that fit your specified criteria. Any house that you are interested in seeing, we will make an appointment for an in-person showing, and you are one step closer to your dream home.
