Move Quickly to Buy Your Dream Home
You can’t get what you want if you don’t know what you want. When narrowing down the criteria for REI home search, you should know what type of home you want to buy, determine the age and condition of the house you’re willing to accept and use a home search comparison chart to keep organized.
Bill Steers blogs about several important considerations a home buyer should keep in mind:
“Once you’ve settled on a couple of preferred neighborhoods for REI home search, it’s time to pick out a few homes to view. Having a house features ‘wish list’ keeps you focused on which features are most important to you.
While house hunting, it’s a good idea to make notes about what you see because viewing several houses at a time can be confusing. Use a home comparison chart to help you keep track of REI search, organize REI thoughts and record REI impressions.
Act Decisively When You Find the Right Home
Before you begin the home buying process, resolve to act promptly when you do find the right house. Every REALTOR® has stories to tell about a couple who looked far and wide for their dream home, finally found it, and then said, •We always promised my Dad we’d sleep on it, so we’ll make an offer tomorrow.․ Many times the story had a sad ending „ someone else came in that evening with an offer that was accepted.
Resolve that you will act decisively when you find the house that’s clearly right for you. This is particularly important after a long search or if the house is newly listed and/or underpriced.”
Confucius once said “He who hesitates is lost„ „ a good thought to keep in mind when deciding to make an offer on the perfect house before it belongs to somebody else.
