It is important to focus on what you want in your home search during your decision making process. There are many neighborhoods in each city and it is necessary not to get distracted by the array of homes available in the market. Being your Realtor®, I can guide you to stay on the right path to your new home. I have put together a few important steps for you to prepare yourself in this home search process as follow:
1. Before your home search, it is important for you to make a list to
study the neighborhood of your choice. You should consider the
elements that you preferred for your new home location. For
example:
- The Quality of the Neighborhoods and Schools
- The Traffic and Property Values
- Hospitals and Shops
- Public Transportation and Highways
- Airports and Cultural Centers such as Museums and Theaters
- Beaches; Parks and Stadiums
- Prisons and Crime Rate
- Future Construction
You could find the above information from your local government and
the police department.
2. Once you make a decision on the neighborhood, it's time to look for a
mortgage lender and get pre-qualified for a mortgage. That will define
the perimeter of your home search in the neighborhood that you are
interested. If you do not know where to start, then contact me and I
will guide you through this process. I have the resources to put you
in touch with the best lender in the area. Remember, I am the Realtor®.
