Once those preparations are out of the way, it is time to find the right property for you.
Take a Drive.
Get to know the neighborhoods, complexes, or subdivisions, which interest you. Drive around and get a feel for what it would be like to own a property in the area. Start getting a sense of the properties available in those areas.
Narrow Your Search.
Select a few properties that interest you the most and have your REALTOR® make appointments to visit them. Ask your REALTOR® about the potential long term resale value of the properties you are considering..
Time to Buy.
Once you have picked out the property you want to purchase, your REALTOR® can help you make an offer that the seller will accept. A good REALTOR® will investigate the potential costs and expenses associated with the new property. They can also help you draft your offer in a way that gives you the advantage over another offer.
