    Previewing Homes


    PREVIEWING HOMES

    You've done the groundwork, gotten your pre-approval, narrowed down your criteria, and started to identify potential homes of interest. It's now time to get serious & find out if those gorgeous pictures you've seen on-line, truly match up with the real home. While fun and exciting, previewing and validating "THE ONE", should not be taken lightly and requires patience & perseverance.

    How's your memory? Seeing 10+ homes in a day and remembering all features and details will make your head spin. To bring this blur into focus, use the following tips to assist in narrowing down your choices in the decision-making process:

    1. On your journey to see each home, make notes regarding driving & traffic challenges, local amenities, proximity to work, school, place of worship, etc.

    2. Drive around the neighborhood and get a feel for how homes and yards are cared for.

    3. Bring a legal pad & make notes for each home of the inside, outside, neighborhood, and surrounding area.

    4. Document property features, damage, pros vs. cons, and rate each individual home using a scale between 1-5. For all homes rating a 3 or more, take a walk around video, or pictures to refresh your memory later.

    5. Keep an open mind. Finding your dream home isn't always easy and it's rare to find one home that checks each & every box.

    6. BE READY TO MAKE AN OFFER! When you find the right home, keep in mind there may be other interested buyers. Be ready to make a solid offer to have the best chance of getting a contract.
