Buying a home is one of the best investments you could ever make. However, it comes with a huge responsibility that requires you to make smart choices along the way. After all, this is your future we are talking about. It’s important for the homeowner to understand every part of the buying process from start to finish and it’s our job at Dorrough Realty to make sure you are comfortable and confident with those decisions. We realize this is the place you are going to call home so it has to be perfect for you and your family. We never want you to feel pressured into purchasing a home you are not truly satisfied with. We take pride every time we hand over a set of keys to a new homeowner. We feel that excitement with you and privileged to be part of a significant moment in a person’s life.
Finding a home can be fun and an exciting journey. We want you to be happy and leave the hard parts to us. As the experts, we want to provide you with some useful information that will help before we get started. Here are some tips to keep in mind:
• If you haven’t already, now is a good time to write down all of the important aspects you hope to find in a home. How many bedrooms do you need? Single story or two story? Is not having a pool a deal breaker? What about the location, neighborhood, area? Are school districts important in your decision-making? These are just a few of the many answers you should know before we begin.
• Partner with a realtor that you connect with. Having a good relationship with the person helping you with such a large purchase is critical. You need to feel confident that they have your best interest in mind. You should feel comfortable discussing your needs and likes as well as your dislikes.
• Find a home that you love but also in your price range. You never want to put yourself in a position where it can later create a financial strain on your household. Just know, they are plenty of affordable homes within your budget and there is no need to over extend yourself.
• Look beyond the paint. A few minor cosmetics repairs such as paint, carpet, baseboards and fixtures can go a long way and are generally inexpensive.
• Understand that even after you purchase your home, it may require some out of the pocket expenses to fix items that were part of the negotiation and is stated in the contract. A seller may have reduced the cost of the home under the agreement that the buyer would make certain repairs.
• Take the time to learn about the economy in the area you are looking to live in. Is the area growing, do they have any new/planned developments? This is critical if you are looking to maintain market value in your investment. If the area is growing and bringing in attractions like the new Golden One Arena in downtown Sacramento, you can bet those homes in the area and surrounding businesses are starting to see a rise in their equity because people want to be where the action is.
As we go through this adventure together, we never want you to be surprised with anything that may come up which is why we strive to provide you with as much upfront information as possible. Honesty and integrity are key components to our brand at Dorrough Realty. We hope that you feel confident in doing business with us.
