  1. FIRST-TIME BUYER'S CHECKLIST

  2. Page 1 First-Time Buyer's CHECKLIST First-Time Buyer's Checklist Assess Your Financial Situation: Before beginning your home-buying journey, it's crucial to understand your financial position. Calculate your income, expenses, savings, and debt. This enables you to comprehend the extent of your affordability and identify a mortgage payment structure that seamlessly aligns with your financial plan. Get Pre-Approved for a Mortgage: Before you start looking for a home, getting pre-approved for a mortgage can be a smart move. Pre-approval gives you an idea of how much a lender will provide you based on your credit and financial history. This helps define your budget and makes you a more attractive buyer to sellers. List Your Needs and Wants: Create a list of your needs and wants in a home. Requirements might include a certain number of bedrooms or proximity to work, such as a pool or a finished basement. This helps you narrow your search and focus on homes that meet your requirements. Hire a Real Estate Agent: A real estate agent can be invaluable for first-time home buyers. They can guide you through the process, negotiate on your behalf, and provide access to homes as soon as they hit the market. Research Your Desired Neighborhoods: Learn about the communities you're interested in. Look into school ratings, crime rates, public transportation, amenities, and future development plans. Visit at different times of the day to get a feel for the neighborhood. • Page 1

  3. Page 2 First-Time Buyer's CHECKLIST View Multiple Homes: Don't rush into buying the first house you see. Visit several properties to compare and contrast. Each viewing will better understand what's available within your budget and what you like or dislike. Make a Competitive Offer: Once you find a home you love, your real estate agent will help you make an offer based on comparable homes. They'll ensure your request is competitive yet within your budget. Get a Home Inspection: Never skip the home inspection. This is your opportunity to learn about potential issues with the house. Depending on the results, you might renegotiate the price or ask the seller to make repairs before closing. Close on Your Home: You'll close on the home once your offer is accepted and all contingencies are met. This involves signing a lot of paperwork, but when it's done, you'll receive the keys to your new home!
