Secrets For Saving Thousands
Here is the first in a series of eight ideas that one should consider when buying their next home.
Secret #1: Understand What You NEED In Your Next Home.
Two things you need to consider here: Your NEEDS…and your WANTS. They’re two very different things.
You may need four bedrooms because of your children, or need a 3-car garage because of your three cars.
What you’ll find is your needs are fairly basic. It’s the “wants” that take a little more time to clarify. Here is a list of needs you should consider before looking for your home:
1. General price range of home. We’ll cover this ahead when discussing financing options and the amount of home you can afford.
2. Approximate size of home (in sq. footage). Make it a reasonable range.
3. General location, area, or subdivision.
4. Number of bedrooms required. Don’t forget to include any home offices or guest rooms.
5. Number of bathrooms you need. Frequently determined by the number of children you have.
6. Style and layout of home. Do you want a more formal plan, or a contemporary plan with great room designs, etc.
7. School requirements or districts.
