Here are some tips to follow when you begin your home search:
1. Find a good Realtor. You want one that can point things out you might miss as well as help with values and what you should offer.
2. Know what your budget is so you can pick the neighborhood that makes you feel warm and fuzzy AND fits the wallet.
3. Know what type home will make you happy for the next 7 years or so...will it be a one story or a two story...how many bedrooms and baths do you think you need, how much yard do you want to enjoy and take care of. Are you looking for new or a fixer upper?
4. Pay attention to the location of the homes that interest you. Are there busy streets in front/behind or in close proximity that you might find annoying in the near future or hurt your resale ability. Are power lines too close for your comfort, does drainage/flooding look like it could be an issue?
5. Be ready to make an offer when you have found the right home....if the home gives you a hug and meets most of the resale and need criteria you should make a strong compelling offer before anyone else buys it out from under you. I have seen it happen in all kinds of markets.
