Are you ready to buy a new home ?

Hi,

If you are ready to buy a new home and not exactly sure where you want to live here’s a quick and easy list of things to ask your self and to do ……… before you dive in ! Remember it isn’t every day that we go out and spend a few hundred thousand dollars or for that matter MILLIONS … right ? So put in the time to make the right decisions, like you would do for anything else in your life.

1) Establish your price point

2) Establish your needs (in terms of size)

3) Establish your lifestyle needs (very, very important especially if you are thinking of an “up and coming” area)

4) Establish a relationship with a local, educated Broker ….who can assist you in this process

5) Zero in on 3 areas that will meet your needs and not necessarily your “wish list” as we all know what we want isn’t always what we need.

6) Spend at least 2 months visiting the areas, day/night , testing out the commute if needed, parking, the restaurants and bars, food shopping, laundry etc all the little things we forget to check out then find our selves at a loss for the things we NEED,

7) Hone in on an area and go in for the kill.

8) Make sure you have a great lawyer and home inspector or engineer (even in new construction !!!! )

9) Have the Broker hand hold you through the whole process and assist when it matters : NEGOTIATING and WINNING the BID.

10) Schedule your movers and enjoy your new digs ………..
