The First Steps to buying your home

Deciding how to fund the purchase. If you are a cash buyer this does not apply. However if like most of us you choose a loan this is a great first step. Check your credit score. If it is great no worries, if not start repairing it and speak with a loan officer as soon as you can. Then get pre qualified for your loan. This will give you a guideline on what you can spend. Later when you get ready to start looking for a home to purchase get pre-approved. This is the point where you have to provide documentation to the lender.

Most home sellers will want you to be pre-approved before viewing their homes. No one wants to get a pet sitter, clean their home up or get a baby sitter so someone who is not approved for a home loan can walk through their house. Not to mention the emotional ups and downs that come with selling your home.

You are in a great place to start your search. Now take the next step and reach out to us. We will represent you well and help you find the perfect Auburndale Florida homes for sale to choose from.
