Do all of the research you can on things like lenders and inspectors when buying a home. You should understand how much home you can afford and what your non negotiable are in a home.

Best advise is take your time and find something you love. One thing I wish I knew before purchasing is this process is not quick it takes time.

Ashley

A delay is not a denial. Do the work! Take your time to learn to manage your finances and save money, understand how your credit can work for and against you, make a list of the things you desire in your home, and start envisioning yourself looking at homes, sitting at the table signing at closing, getting your keys and moving into the home of your hearts desires!

Jonathan

Create a plan and research every step of the process. (This was a YouTube channel that helped me tremendously understanding what to expect. https://youtube.com/c/WinTheHouseYouLove). Keep your documents organized. Don’t be discouraged by the process!

Pat and Renata

The best advice we have is to have a plan, but also have flexibility built into the plan when looking for your home. Also, once you move in, get to know your neighbors. That will make a big difference.

If there's one thing we wish we knew is that your first, second, or even fifth offer may not be accepted, especially in a crazy and inflated real estate market. You just have to continue to stick with it and don't get discouraged.
