Buying a home is one of the most important decisions you can make. It's not only where you will sleep, celebrate, and grow, but it's also an investment in your future. Working with a Realtor who understands the Bend, Oregon home market and who can get your offer accepted, even in a competitive market, is the key to making you a successful buyer.
Successful Buyer Tips*:
Talk to mortgage brokers
Many first-time home buyers don’t take the time to get prequalified. They also often don’t take the time to shop around to find the best mortgage for their particular situation. It’s important to ask plenty of questions and make sure you understand the home loan process completely.
Make a good offer
Remember that your offer is very unlikely to be the only one on the table. Do what you can to ensure it’s appealing to a seller.
Think ahead
It’s easy to get wrapped up in your present needs, but you should also think about reselling the home before you buy. The average first-time buyer expects to stay in a home for around 10 years, according to the National Association of REALTORS®’ 2013 Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers.
