This spring, you may be faced with a choice:
Do you renew for another year at an increased rent or do you jump into real estate and finally become a homeowner?
If you think you’ll stay in your area for 5+ years and have a steady income, now could be the perfect time for you to start your real estate journey.
Once you’ve decided that you want to buy a home, you can begin the home buying process.
Here’s how you should plan to spend the next few months!
First Things First: This is the time to start learning about the home buying process! Go look up some resources for homebuyers, ask your family and friends how they bought their first home, and start getting into the real estate state of mind. We have tons of insight and connections of the mortgage and lawyer side of things as well, so you will be well taken care of with us!
Next: Once you have a handle on how buying a home works, it’s time to get pre-approved. Research lenders, get recommendations, and shop around for a lender you like that has the best rates for you. Your lender will look at your finances and tell you how much of a mortgage you’re likely to qualify for. You’ll get a shiny pre-approval letter that you can show to sellers to put you ahead of other buyers. Not sure where to start with this, again we can help you 100%. We work with some amazing local mortgage brokers and have connections at many major financial institutions as well!
March/April: This is when the spring home buying season is in full force, which means that it’s time to start looking at homes! Your Evoy agent will help you find homes to see, set up showings, and walk you through each home to show you the pros and cons of each property. We will help you find the best property for your lifestyle and you will have our team to guide you through the entire buying process.
Imagine that in just a couple months you could be well on your way to being in your own home. Sounds way better than paying another year of astronomical rent, doesn’t it?
To be aligned with this timeline and ready for this spring real estate rush, you need to connect with your real estate agent today. If you don’t have an agent yet, send us a message! We have a team of agents who love to house hunt!
