Buying your first home should be exciting

This experience can also be a bit stressful and daunting. To help ease the stress, I have listed 5 quick tips that may help comfort you and give you the confidence to take the next step.

 

Evaluate your finance

-          Try to determine what you can afford and what you feel comfortable with repaying on a home loan. Then, set yourself a realistic budget before looking at property and put the $’s aside as if you were already paying a mortgage.

 

Free money

-          Take a look at the what Government grants and incentives are currently on offer that may help you get into your first home

 

Finance

Start looking

Get a professionals opinion

-          You’ve found the property, now it’s time to hire an inspector that can uncover any potential problems such as structural issues and pest infestations. This service will cost you upfront, however it could potentially save you thousands in repairs etc…
