Think three months isn't enough time to find your dream home? Here's the game plan.
Month 1:
- Secure a pre-approval letter ASAP. Understanding your budget and buying power will streamline your house hunt.
- Connect with an agent: A skilled agent will be your advocate and representative to guide you throughout the entire process.
- Research online listings and attend open houses. This will help you refine your priorities and prepare you to make an offer quickly.
Month 2:
- Find your perfect match and be ready to pounce on it as soon as it hits the market.
- Make an offer. Give your highest and best first and ask for a quick closing date.
- Once your offer is accepted, schedule a thorough inspection the same day so you can uncover any potential issues.
Month 3:
- Close the deal and secure your keys. Pop the bubbly — you're a holiday homeowner!
- Lock in reliable movers to ensure a smooth transition into your new space. (I can recommend a great one!)
- Embrace the holiday spirit but keep decorating and meals simple this year. The best gift you can give yourself is time with loved ones in your new home!
