NEW BUYER BEWARE

If you’re looking to become a first-time homeowner, it’s easy to get excited,
and in the process, get ahead of yourself. There are several financial aspects
you must examine when navigating the purchasing process. Here are a few
important warnings, or homebuying ‘don’ts,’ that you should consider.




Don't Delay on Getting Preapproved

Just because you say you’re in the browsing stage of buying a home doesn’t mean
the home of your dreams won’t fall into your lap. If you find a home that you
love before you’ve been approved for a home loan, you may be out of luck. Due to
a low inventory of homes across the country, competition is high, so don’t delay
getting preapproved. 




Don't Ignore Closing Costs

Closing costs, which can involve a wide variety of fees, are often forgotten
during the excitement of the home buying experience. Many people focus strictly
on the down payment costs when shopping, but escrow, application, and inspection
fees may apply to you during the closing process. Be sure to budget for these
extra expenses.




Don't Forget About Month-to-Month Costs

Whether it’s normal living expenses or taxes, insurance, and homeowner’s
association fees, you’ll be spending money related to your home on a monthly
basis. Expenses such as utility costs for water and electricity often get
overlooked when purchasing a home. Less essential costs such as landscaping/lawn
care are also lurking. So be prepared to research all of these potential monthly
bills prior to closing.




Don't Try to do it Yourself

You may save money buying a home with no professional help, but it can turn into
a nightmare. Not knowing the ins and outs of real estate transactions could come
back to haunt you if another party takes advantage of your lack of knowledge.
Unless you have extensive experience in real estate, the smart move is to always
consult a professional to assist you with all facets of buying a home.




TIPS FOR MILLENNIAL INVESTORS

Investing in real estate can be fruitful. Now, after years in the workforce,
more millennials are taking the leap. Many are first-time investors who need
helpful tips about how to get started in the real estate game.




Improve Your Credit

Investors need a good credit score to get certain loans—especially first-time
investors. Money lenders comb through your finances to ensure you’re a good
risk, so pay off previous loans to bump up your score.




Build Your Savings

Having a stable savings stream puts you in good standing with lenders. Save a
percentage of your paychecks to store funds for your first purchase, and create
a smart and consistent plan to pay off your high-interest debts first.




Study Up

Research can help you build a strong portfolio and learn about the industry.
Calculate how much you can spend and how long it takes to renovate and sell
homes in your price range. Use comparisons for similar real estate in the area
to save time, money, and stress.




Use Your Brain

Emotion can get in the way of real estate investment. What may seem too good to
be true often is. Consult an inspector prior to making a purchase. And learn
from any failures to become a stronger, smarter investor.




CHECKLIST FOR NEW HOMEOWNERS

You’ve finally finished the paperwork and you’ve got the keys. Congratulations,
you’re officially a new homeowner! While some think the purchasing process is
daunting, what comes next can be equally challenging: deciding what you need in
your home. Here are a few items to think about prior to moving in, so you’re
ready to live comfortably when the day comes.




1. Cleaning Equipment

If you’re coming from an apartment lifestyle, you’ll soon realize that cleaning
a home is much more challenging and exhausting. More rooms and furniture amount
to more work and ground to cover. Make sure you’re prepared with a broom and
mop, as well as a good vacuum cleaner




2. Toolkit

Not paying rent anymore is a burden lifted, but you also don’t have a landlord
anymore. This means you’ll be responsible for all repairs. Consider assembling
an extensive tool collection to be prepared for all possible mishaps—which
assuredly will happen.




3. Design & Customization

As a new home owner, you may not be able to splurge on fancy design elements,
but that shouldn’t stop you from creating the interior of your dreams. Start
with your window treatments and create a color scheme for your home with
different styles and hues of drapes. Think about inexpensive accents like photo
frames, vases or vintage furniture you can refurbish.




4. Entertainment 

When your friends and family find out about your new purchase, they’ll want to
come over and enjoy your home with you. Don’t forget about having party supplies
to easily facilitate entertaining guests. Party-hosting materials, such as
serving platters, placemats, cocktail/wine glasses, dishes, and cutlery, will
help show off your new space.







TALES FROM THE TWINS

This month has been full of packing! I'm getting ready to leave for Southern
Utah University and I'm so excited - especially to explore all of the national
parks. But, this is the first time in our entire lives that Kenzie and I'll be
apart, so it's bittersweet. I just got back from Cedar City where we did a
walk-through of the house my family bought. Having a mom & aunt in real estate
definitely has perks. I also have a sister in real estate now since Kenzie got
her license in Washington! She'll be working while she finishes school in the
next couple of years.

~ Carson (& Kenzie)
