Buying a Home in Phoenix

Since buying your dream home is such a life changing experience, you are going to want to make sure that you have a game plan.

Whether you're buying a home in Phoenix, or elsewhere in the Valley of the Sun, your first task will be to determine what you would love in a home.  Start off by making a list of features that you need or want in your new home.  What area of the Valley would you love to live in?  How many square feet are you looking for?  How many bedrooms do you need?  Do you need a pool to make it through the summer?  What school district would you like your kids to attend?  Is it important to you to have an oversized lot?  Clearly understanding what you are looking for in your new home will allow you to efficiently and effectively search the market.  If you feel overwhelmed with all the criteria, feel free to call me or email me and I will be happy to walk you through the process.

Usually, the biggest factor when purchasing a new home is price.  The key here is to shop around for the best interest rate and program you can find that fits your needs.  The lower the interest rate, the more expensive a house you can afford.  There are many different kinds of mortgages, and there are hundreds of mortgage banks.  Be diligent, educate yourself, shop around, and make sure you find a product that fits your needs.  If you would like me to get the ball rolling for you, please fill out the quick mortgage questionnaire and I will have one of my mortgage partners contact you as soon as possible.

You will also want to decide whether you want a new home or an existing home.  Many newer homes cost more money, and take anywhere from 6 months to 12 months to build.  Existing homes may be cheaper, but they also may require extra maintenance.

After we have made an offer on the home of your dreams and it is accepted, you will want to take advantage of the inspection period.  A professional home inspector will save you time, money, and most importantly a migraine.  They will do a comprehensive inspection of your home - mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems.  They will alert you to any problem you can think of, and even problems you have not even heard of.  You need to protect yourself from purchasing a home that has any major defect.  This will save you money on unnecessary setbacks and expensive repairs in the long run.
