Is This YOUR Year to Buy a Home in Santa Clara with Cupertino Schools?

A series of thought-provoking questions designed by the real estate consultants and experienced experts at Michelle C. Carr-Crowe and the Get RE$ult$ Team to help potential buyers clarify their goals and discover if yes, this is the right year for them to buy a home.

Top of Form

1.     1. Is there an out of area home purchase, job or investment opportunity you'd like to take advantage of in the next 6 months?

No

Yes, definitely, the sooner the better

I'm carefully considering whether this may be true for me

Chances look good, I just need to verify numbers and/or details

I hope so

Yes, I'm excited about my opportunities

I can say YES with confidence

Only in my dreams

2.     2.Do you have a child entering kindergarten, sixth grade or ninth grade in the fall?

Yes, and I want them registered ASAP

Yes, but other factors are more important to me

Yes, and I want to feel comfortable with the neighborhood schools

Yes, and I'm still researching different schools before committing to any homes

I'm not concerned about schools

No

Yes and I know which school districts & neighborhoods I like

Yes, and this is important to my decision

3.     3.Do you need to obtain residency in a particular school district to ensure a quality education for your children?

Yes, this is critically important to our family

I know I do, but I may be just as happy moving and renting in that District

Yes, but I'm still gathering more information

I'm still figuring out how much this is worth to me.

No, this isn't important to our decision

Yes, this is a big factor in our home buying decision

Yes, and I'm willing to live in a smaller or older home, or even a townhome or condo if that's what it takes

No, we'll still keep children in private or home school.

4.     4.Do you long to stop throwing money away each month on rent and begin investing monthly in the security of homeownership?

Yes, I want to stop worrying about being forced to move

Yes, but this might not be realistic

YES!

Yes, but it will be at least another 6 months before we're ready

Still weighing the pros and cons

I'd like to, but I'm worried about what I hear in the news

Yes, I'm looking forward to the tax benefits

Yes, I'm tired of paying my landlord's mortgage

5.     5.Do you believe you have enough money for a down payment on a home? (and worry if you don´t buy something soon that your down payment money might "disappear"?)

Yes, we have carefully examined our situation and options and are comfortable moving forward

Yes, the last time I checked

Not unless we win the lottery

Yes, absolutely

The lender says yes, but I'm still worried

The numbers look good but I've hesitated to actually find out for sure

Not yet, but within the next 3 months we will

No, we need to save for another 6 months at least

6.     6.Do you feel secure in your job and finances?

Only in my dreams

I feel a bit iffy on both

Yes to both

Yes on finances, uncertain about job

No, but we have a plan to work on it

Yes on job, uncertain about finances

Yes, we have at least 3 months reserves, too

Looks like it to me, but I haven't checked with a professional

7.     7.Do you see yourself living in your next home for at least five to ten years?

Yes, we're prepared to stay long enough to acquire equity before selling and buying up

Yes, I think this plan will work for us

I know that makes sense but it's hard for me to commit to that

Yes, eventually

No, things change too much for us

Yes, that's exactly what we plan on

I hope so but I'm worried

Yes, and maybe even longer

8.     8.Are you worried that if you don't buy a house soon that prices and/or interest rates will go up and you'll end up getting priced out of the market you want?

Yes, and we're ready to take advantage of the market now

Yes, houses I like have sold for prices I would gladly pay, I wish I already bought one

No, if it's meant to be it will happen

Yes, we've actively followed home activity and feel strongly we should act soon

No, we just aren't ready

No, I'm waiting for the market to hit bottom (start going back up) before buying

Yes, we keep tabs on certain homes and it looks like we're at a stable point, OK to act now

The data looks good, but I worry when I read the news or talk to my friends
