In asking around I have discovered that many people do not know how to get started in purchasing a home. Most start by driving around and calling the for sale sign that they see and end up talking to someone about that house and then they move on to the next sign.
Well the best way to start is to interview agents. Ask your family and friends who they have used in the past and what they liked or disliked about their agent. Call the agents and interview them.
Once you have chosen an agent they should start by telling you to call a lender and see what you can be approved for.
After the approval comes in, go over this with the agent. A great agent will help you see if it is feasible and help you establish a budget before even looking at a house. A great agent will also ask to see the good faith from the lender so the agent can help negotiate closing cost.
Remember to always ask a lot of questions... a great agent may not no the answer right away but will always be willing to find the correct answer.
