Getting a new home is easy but tricky at times. Many buyers are encountering many stumble blocks en route to their chosen house. This is because they commit minor mistakes along the way that hinders smooth processing. This can be prevented only if you are familiar with these common mistakes.

Some plans offer replacements for broken appliances or systems, but others will only repair them. For minor repairs, this is no big deal. However, if you have an appliance that continues to break down over and over, you're probably going to want a replacement. You'll also want to find out what they'll replace broken items with. Will you be able to get the exact same item or better? Or will you have to settle for less?

One of the ways you will make the inside of the home stand out is by getting rid of the clutter. When you live some place for a long time, you tend to accumulate a lot of stuff. Either the realtor or the stager will likely tell you to get rid of most of that stuff and either tuck it away in a closet or rent a storage locker. Along these same lines, remove any unnecessary furniture so you can make the home seem more wide open and roomier. Then listen to the advice of a professional stager on how to best arrange the remaining furnishings.

One thing about this type of Mortgage that might seem off-putting, initially, is the fact that the interest rates actually fluctuate within the mortgage. This is not necessarily a bad thing, especially if the rates go down after you've established the mortgage. The important thing to remember is that the amount you pay per month will always be the same - the only thing that changes is the amount that will come off the Principle. If interest rates start to rise, make an extra effort to set aside some money to pay directly to the Principle.

The Realtor can explain financing options to you and direct the best possible financing sources to you. Most home buyers don't realize that they can buy a home with NO MONEY DOWN. There are also down payment assistance programs available where the down payment assistance money does not have to be paid back. Please note that you're not required to use a mortgage company/bank that the Realtor refers to you. You are welcome to use any company that you like. However, the process tends to be smoother if you use a company that you know has good loan programs & good loan officers. Since Realtors use mortgage companies & banks everyday, their knowledge and experience may be helpful in locating a good company.

Some companies have pre-existing conditions to watch out for. There's nothing more frustrating than paying for the coverage you think you're getting, only to find out when something breaks that the company won't cover it due to a pre-existing condition. Read the fine print.

But how do you decide what to buy if it doesn't exist yet? Easy! The builder will have detailed blueprints for you to look over, as well as, usually, a model of the building. This gives potential buyers a pretty good idea of what they are getting into. There may even be already built structures that are very similar to the one you are considering. This will give you an idea of the builders quality. But even if you can't see an actual building, buying pre-construction is quite reliable as long as the builder is. Do a bit of research to find out what they have done in the past. If possible, talk to an owner of something else they have built to asses their level of satisfaction. If that isn't possible, a qualified agent will usually be quite familiar with local builders.

Perhaps, but what if they sign the contract or you put something together that is agreeable to both parties. The great thing is is that you find out how serious the buyer is and you don't waste time pursing a dead end.
