Are you thinking about buying a home, or did you recently purchase a home?
If so, what are / were your top considerations? What led you to your decision to buy or not buy?
What questions did you ask yourself, your Realtor®, and your lender prior to making the decision to buy?
According to a recent post by Keeping Current Matters, these are the questions you should be asking (video):
1. "Why do I want to purchase a new home?"
What is the main purpose or goal you wish to achieve with your move? Not your financial goals, but your purpose in choosing a property to come home to and raise your family.
If you are considering buying a home, you likely already know the answer.
2. "What does the market look like?"
This is where having a local and knowledgeable Realtor® is important so that your financial interests are protected.
The market is not the same this month as it was last month and it's not the same in your neighborhood as it is in the neighborhood across the street.
3. "What is going to happen to mortgage interest rates?"
While a good Realtor® should be able to discuss mortgages in general and give an idea of where the rates may be headed, a qualified mortgage professional is your best resource for specific questions related to the interest rates and loan programs specifically available to you.

If you have that one figured out, then I'm the next one to call.
