This is a lovely list. I would just like to say one more.....Resolve to listen to your Realtor. Shop, find one with good references that you like, and when they give you advice about what to offer, getting qualified for a certain program, etc. LISTEN. I had a closing bumped today due to the lender and a problem I told them about a month ago. I told the client this was going to be a problem and to be sure they had a lender who would deal with it. Did he listen????? Well, not exactly. I'm fighting to keep his rate locked now. It will close because I have been a real .......... at pushing people. It could have been so easily avoided though. You must take good advice and just because you like someone don't forget to make sure they have the goods.

A very well written post. First time homebuyers I believe do not  understand enough of what is involved in buying a home.
