Pre-Qualification/Pre-Approval
If your purchase is not going to be cash, the first step in investing in real estate is knowing how much you can afford. Contact your Nathan Fitts & Team representative for a list of their preferred lenders.
List of needs & wants
Once you’ve determined your budget, it is time to compile your list of needs & wants. The needs list would include items such as the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, etc. Your list of wants would include things such as view, frontage, style, and other features, but things that are not “must haves.” Realistic expectations are key in your home search.
