Emotional Stages

Last week we discussed the emotional mistakes that can be made when buying a home.  This week we are going to discuss the emotional stages that one goes through in the home buying process.  

As I stated in last week’s blog, we do nothing without an emotion attached to it.  This is especially true when making one of the biggest and most important purchases a person will quiet possibly ever make.  

So let’s jump right in and get started.  Here is a list of just 5 stages that are associated with the purchase of a home. 

Don’t let the list overwhelm you – you have a licensed Realtor on your side!  Just pick up the phone and give us a call – Mick and Jane Goebel are trusted and experienced agents and they are ready to help you today!

Habits to have before making your purchase

Habit No. 1: Automate your down payment savings

•  Save, Save, Save – in order to have the 20% recommended down payment
• Amassing enough for a down payment takes discipline and perseverance, but setting up automatic savings can make it easier

Habit No. 2: Build your credit history and keep it clean

•  Pay Off Past Debts 
•  Stay on top of your credit cards, car and college loans
• Don’t avoid credit all together; but pay all your bills and payments on time

Habit No. 3: Practice living on a budget

•  Compare renting vs buying in your area
•  Create a budget that factors in your new reality so you can get used to living on less disposable income
• Downsizing your budget early also means you’ll be able to save more for your down payment, pay down debt, or save for furniture for your new home.

Habit No. 4: Get your handy on

•  Property maintenance … is an ongoing effort for homeowners
•  Knowing how to fix basic home issues … will save thousands of dollars in the future

Habit No. 5: Prepare to pounce

• Learn the real estate market in your area
• Start browsing homes online
