Are you a first-time home buyer? Are you ready to move out of your starter home and find your forever home? Whatever the case may be, RE/MAX Platinum Group knows that buying a home can be a rewarding, yet stressful experience, which is why their strong team of agents is here to help ease the process from start to finish.

CONSIDER YOUR LONG-TERM PLANS

Buying a home can be quite the commitment, so before you buy a home, think about your long-term plans. Do you plan on living in your next home forever? Are you buying a starter home? Where do you see yourself living in 20 years from now? It is important to consider the future before purchasing a home to avoid making any mistakes or causing any regrets. The real estate agents at RE/MAX Platinum Group are happy to guide you in the right direction.

KNOW THE PROS AND CONS OF EACH PROPERTY TYPE

Before buying, you should compare the various properties that you are interested in. Consider making a list of the pros and cons for each property, and balancing them with one another. Some important factors to consider are the location of the property, school districts, crime levels, and house features, such as stairs, outdoor space, or room to grow. Make sure that the most important factors for you and your family are included in your list for the best results!

IMPROVE YOUR CREDIT RATING

A good credit rating can save you thousands over the life of your mortgage—but first, you need a good credit rating! Now is the time to settle any bills that may have made it to collections, and to start paying at least the minimum balance (but preferably more!) on your credit card bills if you have them. Saving money in the bank can also help, and make sure not to take out new loans, open new credit applications, or miss payments—all of these can negatively affect your credit rating.

LIST DOWN FEATURES OR AMENITIES YOU’D LIKE TO HAVE

If you are planning on buying a home, you most likely know exactly what you are looking for, but finding a home with all those bells and whistles you want can be a challenge. Before beginning your home search, create a list of all of the amenities and features you would like in the house—number of bedrooms and bathrooms, pool, yard, open floor plan, etc. This will make the home buying
process simpler and quicker!

WORK WITH A TRUSTWORTHY AGENT WHO’S FAMILIAR WITH THE AREA

When going through the home-buying process, be sure to work with an agent who is knowledgeable about the area you are moving
to. By choosing a Realtor who is familiar with the community, you will be working with someone who knows about the local school district, the real estate market, and someone who has connections to others within the area.
