Looking to Buy?

To save time and money while looking for a new house, use these home buying tips.

DECIDING TO BUY

Are you fed up with paying rent? Have you outgrown your current living situation? Are you looking for a place to rent? Do you simply want a larger yard?

You'll be better able to select the right home if you know why you're buying. So, what's the bottom line?

PREPARING TO BUY

Gather your documents.

Your loan acceptance procedure will be sped up if you have all of the following paperwork on available:

Financial statements
Bank accounts
Investments
Credit cards
Auto loans
Recent pay stubs
Tax returns for two years
Copies of leases for investment properties
401K statements, life insurance, stocks, bonds, and mutual account information.

Your credit score will have a significant impact on the type of property you can purchase and the amount you can pay. It is initially recommended that you verify your credit score with a reputable lender to evaluate what you can afford and what you are comfortable with. The lender will check your credit ratings with Equifax, Experian, and Trans Union, which are the three major credit reporting companies.

We can gladly refer you to qualified, experienced lenders in the residential, construction, commercial, and investment real estate.
