WHAT FIRST TIME HOME BUYERS NEED TO KNOW BEFORE BUYING THEIR FIRST PROPERTIES !!

1. Understanding your Budget "How much you Qualify for and how much you can afford"

2. The importance of hiring your home inspector, never rely on a bank valuation.

3. Factoring rates and levies on your monthly expenses

4. Prohibition of renovations during early occupation

5. Research the neighbourhood, request CMA's and understand property market

6. Negotiate your offer, negotiate your interest rate.

7. Home maintenance is better than repairs

8. You request the bond and transfer fees to be added on your mortgage bond

Find an agent that you trust, don't be scared to ask all relevant questions. Do not feel pressured to sign, because when you do there's no change of mind without penalties, lastly understand all the terms and conditions of the sale agreement and your obligations.

February thank you for being good to me🥰

Last viewing for the day, it's Sunday today I'm burnt out. Looks like we have an offer 😜

I want to use this platform to help home buyers especially first time home buyers and property investors that are starting on property investment to avoid mistakes when buying properties.

Whether it's a primary home, buy to let, buy to renovate and sell, redevelopment. I want to connect you with experts in these fields and we can ensure that you are making a sound investment.

I am an estate agent, often I sell properties with owners that did not do their due diligence when they bought, now stuck with properties with rental that cannot cover the bond, maintenance, rates etc.
