Finding the Home That's Right for You!

For the majority of homebuyers, finding the right property to buy is often the most difficult step of the home buying process— more difficult than saving for a down payment or getting a mortgage.* 
Before you start your search, consider these four important factors:

1. How much house can you afford? Knowing what you can afford will help you narrow your search to homes within your budget. 
2. What type of home do you want? What features make up the ideal home for you and your family? Knowing what you want, and don’t want, will help you focus your search on homes that fit your needs.
3. Location, location, location! Choosing real estate is more than whether you want to live in the city, in the suburbs or away from it all in a rural area. Your neighborhood matters. In fact, 59% of recent buyers said the quality of the neighborhood was the top factor influencing where they lived.*
4. What’s your lifestyle? Your current stage of life, as well as your desired lifestyle, often influences the types of areas and neighborhoods that appeal to you. Once you determine your priorities, you can focus your home search to only those that match your desires.
