What kind of home are you looking for? Do you want a Detached Single Family Home? Or will you prefer Condo Living? When you have determined how much home you can afford, this is the next step to reach your goal.
When you own a home or condo, you will need to be prepared financially for upkeep and maintenance - almost daily!!! When an appliance fails or a window breaks, you are the landlord. You will need to cough up the cash to fix it. I always suggest my first time buyers to set aside money each month to cover extra-ordinary costs. If you are in a detached home, I suggest 1% of the homes value. If you are in a condo, use .5%. Be prepared to prevent cash-strapping yourself.
Searching for a house, apartment condo, town house or loft - first time or not you need to be Represented by a Realtor who will find you the best home for the best price. When I represent you during your home purchase process, you will have a Knowledgeable, Responsible, Respectful agent walking you through the process. Easy and Stress-Free!
Part of my duties to Calgary Home Buyers, is ensuring you are in the best position possible to make informed decisions when considering writing an offer on a property. I also like to ensure you are well planned and ready for each step of the way. To do this, I have created several reports and have available sample contracts so you are ready to buy confidently.
