REALTOR TIPS
For Buyers

Some companies offer grants and incentives to employees who are buying a first home, community
groups may have programs for first-time buyers and the federal government has special offers for
teachers and police officers.

Save Money.
You will need it for the down payment, closing costs, moving and other expenses.

Home inspection
Do plan on making a professional home inspection part of any offer you make. This will help you
understand the condition of the property and the repair bills you may be likely to face.

Consider the location.
What will work best for you and your family? Consider the length of your commute, distance to
shopping, schools, recreation facilities, etc.

Choose a REALTOR
A good real estate professional understands the current market, has access to information you
don't, understands the complexities of the transaction and will be your advocate throughout the
process.

Think credit.
Make it a point to pay all bills on time. Poor credit could mean higher rates and higher monthly
mortgage costs.

Get per-qualified for a loan.
It's quick, it's free and it will take the guess work out of what you can and can't afford.
How can I figure out the mortgage
amortization before closing on the
loan?

Luckily this is an easy answer. In mortgage tips
you will learn that almost any website will have a
free mortgage amortization calculator. By using
these calculators you can determine the
schedule for payments and the amount of
payments you will be expected to pay given
certain conditions.

Using the calculator to the right will show you
what your monthly payment will be and click on     
          and it will show you an amortization
schedule.

Rprt
Before starting your new home search, it is always
best to contact your lender and per-qualify for a loan.
This will give you the power to control what you can
afford and your monthly payments BEFORE you fall in
love with a home.  
Take control of the biggest
purchase of your life, your
home, and start by
per-qualifying for your
home loan so there are no
surprises.
