If this is the beginning of your search, you probably will want to continue to look, in order to learn what other possibilities exist. Sometimes, you don’t know what you want until you see it. You will eventually want to focus your search to certain neighborhoods and certain features will have become must-haves. Before you make an informed offer, find out what other homes nearby sold for recently and what similar homes throughout Newton sold for. Don’t let falling in love with a home blind you to market conditions, but don’t let a great house slip away because you didn’t recognize those features that are in great demand. Buying or selling a home is complex. There are 3 parts to every offer: the price; the terms; the timing. Think about what is more important to you when writing your offer, time or money? These are often points that can later be used during negotiations. Finally, a good Buyer's Agent will serve as your impartial advisor throughout the process.
