Tips to Take the Trauma Out of Home Buying
Find a real estate professional who´s company you enjoy.
Remember, there´s no "right" time to buy and there´s no 'right' time to sell.
Don´t ask for too many opinions.
Focus in on the things that are most important to you.
Don´t try to be a killer negotiator - you could lose the house you've been waiting for.
Don´t focus on the physical aspects of the house itself only.
Presenting an offer contingent on a lot of unresolved issues will make your bid much less attractive to sellers.
Don´t wait until you´ve found a home and made an offer to get approved for a mortgage, investigate insurance availability, and consider a schedule for moving.
Remember maintenance and repair costs in your post-homebuying and then factor in those costs.
A little buyer´s remorse is inevitable and will probably pass, so accept that.
The home you buy will talk to you.
While U.S. homes have appreciated an average of 5.4 percent annually from 1998 to 2002, a home´s most important role is as a comfortable, safe place to live.
