Your Home Buying Team

You need the right resources and the right people to help you find the home you want and work with you through the buying process.

A real estate agent is one of the first people you want on your team. You want to make sure they are licensed and understand your goals. Your real estate agent will be the liaison between you and the property owner and the other people who will be involved in the process of you purchasing your home.

A real estate agent sells a property through a broker. If you can, find a real estate agent who is also a broker. This way the agent/broker can sell directly to you without having to through a third party.

When you look at the various properties being offered and you select the one you are interested in, you should have a home inspection. Your real estate agent/broker may have a reputable home inspector they work with. The inspector will check the house to make sure everything is working properly and if any repairs are needed.

You are now ready to make an application to purchase your home. You will need a mortgage lender. The real estate agent/broker you are working with will have a list of lenders they work with. You can also research mortgage lenders on the Internet. You can compare what the local lender your agent is working with is offering as an interest rate with the lenders on the Internet. If you want to work with a local lender, sometimes they will match a lower rate you may find elsewhere.

To make sure you get exactly what you want at the price you can afford, you need to have a team that is working for you. They can make the process easier.
