Buying Tips
Always use a licensed realtor to best represent your needs & protect your most valuable asset.
Weigh the differenence between buying an older home vs. buying a newer home. Sometimes an older home will have more to offer in square footage and larger land size.
Expect lower maintenance costs with a brand-new home.
Never tell a sellers broker how much you'll raise your offer for a particular house.
Always, get pre-qualified by a lender of your choice, before searching for your new home. When interest rates are low, opt for a fixed mortgage.
Pay attention to floor plans. Changing layouts of rooms later, can be costly.
You can deduct on that years tax return points paid by either party on the purchase of your own residence.
Always obtain title insurance at closing to protect your best interests.
A house that's sited to take advantage of the sun, the wind and the typography costs less to heat and cool and can save thousands of dollars over the years in utility bills.
Buying a house whose style is uniquely individual will probably minimize rather than maximize its resale value because the house will appeal to a somewhat more limited number of potential buyers.
If you think you may need more space in the near future, be sure the house and lot will allow for expansion.
Re-modeling a kitchen is likely to be expensive. So be sure of what you need and want before you buy.
Do not buy a house with foundation problems. Although most foundation problems can be corrected, repair work is usually expensive- Always obtain a warranty if foundation repairs are made through a professional.
A roof that complements the style of a home and is carefully maintained adds to the home's visual appeal and its resale value.
A light-colored roof reflects heat and is best in areas where air-conditioning is the greater energy user. In colder weather climates, a dark roof is preferable because it absorbs more heat. In temperate climates, a middle-range shade is best.
The three most popular wall choices are brick, wood siding and stucco. About half of all home shoppers prefer brick for exterior walls; about one-third prefer wood siding; and about one-fifth prefer stucco.
Wood floors suggest warmth, quality and good taste and are an asset when it comes time to sell a home.
Plant deciduous trees, shrubs and vines on south and west sides of the home to provide shade in the summer and sunshine in the winter. Remember trees enhance the beauty and value of a lot and house.
