Five Pitfalls to Avoid When Buying a Home

Here are five of the most common pitfalls associated with buying a home:
​
  1. House shopping before getting a solid mortgage approval: low housing inventory in many markets means that you'll be competing with multiple offers when you find a home that you like.  Getting a solid mortgage approval BEFORE you start house shopping allows you to make a stronger offer when you find a home you like.  This places you in a much better negotiating position, and it could possibly save your deal.
  2. Not considering the costs of sale (8% +): when you sell your house in the future, you will most likely need to sell the house for at least 8% - 10% more than what you paid for it just to break even and cover the real estate commissions and transfer taxes on the sale.  If your house goes up in value by the long term average of 3% per year, you would likely break even in 2-3 years.  That's why it's important to make sure that buying this home is part of a longer-term strategy.
  3. Overlooking the Costs of Improvements, Utilities & Maintenance: have you considered the costs of improvements, utilities and ongoing maintenance expenses?  That's why it's important to:
    • Get your home properly inspected before the closing
    • Investigate the cost of utilities, and make sure to budget for them
    • Budget 1%-2% of the home's value for annual maintenance expenses
  4. Choosing the wrong down payment strategy: a study was recently conducted by the Federal Reserve showing that a home buyer's down payment strategy is eight times more impactful on housing affordability than the mortgage interest rate.  That's why it's important to consider your down payment options carefully.
  5. Shopping for a mortgage vs. shopping for the right mortgage professional: as you can see, the right mortgage professional can help you consider things that you may otherwise overlook during the homebuying process.

Your mortgage is most likely going to be your single largest debt;
and your home is most likely going to be your single largest investment.
That’s why it's important to work with a qualified mortgage professional when considering your options.
