Make a Decision
Whether it's your first home or your 3rd - making the final decision is the
most difficult. You have carefully organized your search and have kept careful
notes on each home. Now is the time to really scrutinize all your choices. Spend
some time consulting with your real estate professional and then take your time.
Difficult Decisions
You may be torn between two houses that both seem perfect. Now is the time
to carefully consider any trade-offs
House No. 1 may have all the features you want but the price is high and
the seller is unmotivated. House No. 2 may need significant cosmetic work,
but has all the other features you want, including the right price. Expect to
go back and forth while you're debating your choice.
Resale, resale, resale
There's an old real estate adage: "Buy to live and to sell." You may think
you're going to be in your new home for the duration of the mortgage, but
chances are you're not. Give sufficient weight to the home's potential resale
value, and make sure you have all the facts. A planned expressway a block
away could drastically change your home's resale value 20 years from
now.
