Am I Ready to Buy My First Home - Conclusion, Do You Want to?

By
Real Estate Agent with Paragon Real Estate Group

  Welcome to the conclusion of our Am I Ready to Buy My First Home series.  We've discussed whether staying in the same place was something you could do, whether you have the cash, the savings, and the credit to buy a home now, and if your current debtwould harm you.  Now we come to the most important point in the series.

Do You Want to Own a Home?

For some people this is no brainer.  Of course I want to own a home, why would I be reading this if I didn't?  Great, you probably have the home-owning bug in you and one way or another, you'll find a way to get there.  If it's your dream, follow it all the way.  Being a home owner is incredibly rewarding for many people.

On the flip side, owning a home comes with a lot of responsibility.  Not everyone is cut out for it.  Even if all the numbers balance out and buying a home is a great financial move for you, if you're not ready to be responsible for your home, or if you don't want to bother with going through the process of becoming a home owner, don't do it.  It's plain and simple.  Take a minute to really think about whether owning a home is something you want or something others have told you you should want.

If you do want to own a home, work through the steps to get yourself in a great position to do so.

If you are ready to buy a home, or want to know if it's the right time for you,Let Me Help You!!!

I was initially tempted to email your post to one of my new buyers. But then I thought, no, might be a bad idea, since I have already gotten them pre approved and ready to go!

Jon-It's really a basic guide to those who are toying with the idea of buying.  If your buyers are ready to go they'll need a lot more information about the actual buying process and not so much on the pre-qualifying stuff.  Thanks for thinking of me though!
