 4 things every buyer must do before they begin looking for a home 

The four most important things a buyer needs to before they start looking for a home are very simple. The first step is becoming preapproved from a local lender. The reason why I suggest a local lender is because most of the other real estate agents know the local banks. If they know a local lender is willing to finance, it gives the homeowner and other agent peace of mind. Once you’ve been preapproved, we will know where you can go in at.

The second step a buyer needs to do is get their finances in order. Be sure you have your tax returns, bank statements etc. in order. Third, save some money have a budget prepared. The home buying process is exciting and you will be eager to spend money on paint and carpet. Have the money saved so you can do it right away. Finally, enjoy the process! Have an open mind; it’s truly fun buying a property and having your dreams come true.

Remember that none of these steps cost any money and are very easy. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to me. Pehr out!
