Take Notes For Your Move Contact Information

Sometimes you just can’t beat or replace the positives that come along with experience. Especially when buying or selling a home, you want to deal with a professional who has enough transactions under their belt to give you the confidence that you are making the right decision. If you try working with someone who has not been through enough transactions, you may unfortunately realize that your agent’s lack of experience could cost you thousands of dollars. Taking time to align yourself with an agent who has a track history of success can make your life a lot easier.

Clean up the clutter. If there are minor upgrades and repairs you can do, often, they can help re-sale value. Sometimes, if there is enough of a return, it may make sense to do some re-modeling as well. Overall, just make sure your house looks good, clean, presentable, and make sure it feels like a house that someone would want to move into. You wouldn’t want to sell a car that was dirty or smelled bad, right? Make sure we don’t do the same with our home, and make it look good!

Buying and selling a home simultaneously can be a bit of a juggling act. If you want to be able to pull it off effectively, the sooner you can meet with an agent to put together a concise game plan, the better. If you are buying and selling in the same geographic area, you will likely want to use the same real estate agent. However, if you are buying and selling in two distant areas, you will likely need to work and coordinate with two separate agents.
Knowing how much money you want to pay for a home will keep you focused on picking the right home for you and your family. A lender can help you to get pre-approved and give you an idea of your level of affordability. Just because you are approved up to a certain limit, it does not mean that you have to pay for a house at that exact purchase price. Most people will usually buy a house that is below their maximum affordability. This allows them and their family to know they have a great home, but that is still affordable and within their budget. If you don’t have a personal lender on hand don’t worry, many real estate agents have recommendations of good lenders who can guide you through the process.
