Five Mistakes Home Buyers Make

In reading an article from the Wall Street Journal, I am happy to see a major publication to focus on the home buyer, something most news articles do not address as of late. In summation it reminds home buyers the benefits of working with a real estate agent.

For some areas, it’s easy to figure out comparables in the area to base your asking price, but there is much more to a transaction that putting an offer. Buyers must navigate the lending process, repairs, inspections, closings and more.

Guessing what you can afford can create a real headache. Getting a lenders pre-approval letter before submitting a offer to a seller is critical. It shows you are a qualified buyer ready to purchase.

Buying a home is an emotional process for most home buyers; a realtor assists the buyers in keeping a level head in the buying process.
