Buying A Home In 2020 – Steps To Success

In general, most home sales involve the following 10 steps:

  1. Calculate How Much House You Can Afford
  2. Save For A Down Payment And Closing Costs
  3. Get Preapproved For A Mortgage
  4. Find The Right Real Estate Agent For You
  5. Begin House Hunting
  6. Make An Offer On A House
  7. Get A Home Inspection And Appraisal
  8. Ask For Repairs Or Credits
  9. Do A Final Walkthrough
  10. Close On Your New Home

Buying a house is a lot of work. First, you need to decide if you’re ready to be a homeowner and what your budget is going to be. Next, the fun begins – shopping for properties. Pro Tip: Find a reliable real estate agent to back you up. Trust us, they will make everything easier. Once you find a home, your agent will help you submit an offer and negotiate with the seller.

Once you reach an agreement, it’s time to get an appraisal and inspection. If the inspection uncovers some issues, you may want to negotiate repairs or credits with the seller. Be sure to do one more walkthrough in the house before you buy it once all of the work is complete. If everything looks good, then it’s time to close the deal – and enjoy your new status as a homeowner!
