Tips for First-Time Homebuyers offered by ERA Justin Realty

 

Tips for First-Time Homebuyers offered by ERA Justin Realty 

Ask ERA Justin Realtor agent Ilene Harpuder and she will advise, “Buying a home is oftentimes daunting if doing it for the first time. But by asking the right questions and considering a few simple but important issues, you can pave the way for some powerful beginner's luck. A past National Association of Realtors® survey says, first-timers made up nearly half of all homebuyers, you can too.

Thousands have done it with the help of ERA Justin Realty since opening our doors in 1950 and currently receiving over 1,000 buyer and seller reviews. We can help you navigate the complexities of the home buying process, and let you concentrate on the rewards of this new experience. Our professionals will tell you that there are three major points you should take into account: finding the right financing, investigating the community you're considering and evaluating your prospective home's qualities.

Before your home-search begins it's helpful to determine what price-range you are comfortable with and get pre-approved for a loan. There is an array of financing options available for aspiring homeowners of almost every income and one is likely to fit your unique financing needs.

Once you've gained confidence in that area, it's important to make sure you're familiar with the location you'd like to live in. Think about what you want in a community and how your chosen one meets these interests, including nearness to the city or country, reputation of the school system, access to public transportation, and property values. This is another task that ERA Justin Realty, with tools like the neighborhood search functions on its popular website www.ERAJustin.com is perfectly equipped to help you with. Our website features our unique 1000’s of homes section, where a prospect can view almost every ERA house for sale nationally, all areas in which we sell homes.

You also need to evaluate the soundness of your possible new home. What condition are major components like the furnace, windows and roof in? Is it a house needing only cosmetic improvements which will one day pay for themselves in resale value, or structural repairs? A qualified home inspector can help you answer such questions with confidence.

Keep in mind that being new to all of this does have its advantages. First-time homebuyers usually move on within a few years, so you have a flexibility of knowing what to ask and obtaining good guidance which can help make sure you get it right the first time.”

“There is a difference in real estate companies. We ask Buyers and Sellers to compare. We believe that in order to exceed expectations of what our Realtor agents are about, we don’t offer just real estate basics, we try to be as comprehensive as possible. In that way, we know that our Buyers and Sellers will hold us all in the highest regard,” Ilene concluded.

ERA Justin Realty proudly received the prestigious ERA world-wide ‘Commitment to Excellence Award’, and all across the nation, the most sought award that can be achieved in business is the ‘J.D. Power & Associates’ award. Only outstanding business entities are honored and receive it. ERA Real Estate was the recipient of ‘Highest Satisfaction for First Time Home Buyers Among Full Service Real Estate Firms.’ Award. For these reasons ERA Justin Realty should be your buying and selling Realtor of choice.
