Prepare to Buy

Whether you’re a first time home buyer, or a seasoned homeowner, there are several things you can do to prepare for your next (or first) home purchase, whether it’s your primary home or a second home.

If you are going to be financing your purchase, it’s important that you speak with a mortgage lender well in advance of house-hunting. This will help you eliminate any potential roadblocks to financing. There are things you should not do just before buying a home.
