How Much?
It is important to know how much you can afford before you begin looking at homes. You should talk with a lender and get pre-approved for a loan. This puts you in a stronger negotiating position with a seller.

Home Inspection
Once you have found the home that is right for you, you may have some questions about its structure and condition. A home inspector is the best place to get answers. Most sellers allow time to have a property inspected after an offer is accepted.

Buyer's Blues
If your initial euphoria deflates as you ask yourself, "What have I gotten into?" Relax! These feelings are so common that they have even been given a name--"Buyer's Remorse". It is almost always temporary, but call us if you are having an extreme attack. We have experience in helping our clients through the home buying jitters.

The Tax Implications Of Selling Your House
If you are selling your primary residence, you do not have to worry about paying taxes on your profits if your gain does not exceed $250,000 as a single taxpayer (or $500,000 as a married couple filing jointly). You are also free to roll from none to all your gain into another home without further tax consequences.

"Listed" Homes Dominate Residential Sales Results
The chances of selling your home quickly for top dollar will improve considerably if you list it with a real estate sales professional. Consider the fact that nine out of ten homes sold today--more in some markets--are listed with a professional Realtor. Listing your home places it on the local Multiple Listing Service that is subscribed to by a majority of real estate sales professionals. Through the residential MLS listing, your home is assured of getting the widest possible exposure to the market place.
