Buying A Home

Tips for Buying a Home

Get Pre-approved
Don't confuse pre-approval with pre-qualification. Getting pre-approved for a home loan is more complete and allows you to buy a home almost like a straight cash buyer. This will give you not only added buying power but also added negotiating clout with the seller.

Have a Home Inspection
Why a home inspection? Let's look and see!
Example: You've seen a house several times and just love it. The seller has accepted your generous offer and he assures you that the house has no hidden defects. You are busy picking out new curtains plus wallpaper for the den. The closing goes great and you and your spouse move into your new home. However, while hanging a picture, your hammer goes through the wall to reveal a wet mass of mold and rotting wood. Oops!
Having a thorough inspection done by a certified home inspector is the best way to avoid such incidents as the one described above.

Stay Cool
Buying real estate can prove to be stressful at times. Your Prudential Crary agent is here to work closely with you to ensure a smooth and comfortable process!
