Preparing to Buy Tips

𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐒𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐄𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲: Consider both one-time expenses and recurring bills when planning to buy a house.
𝐃𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐲𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭: Your requirement depends on the mortgage type. For instance, a 3% down payment on a $300K home is $9K. Set a goal and automate your savings.
𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐬: These range from 2% to 6% of the loan amount. For a $300K loan, expect to pay $6K-$18K. In a buyer’s market, ask the seller to cover some costs.
𝐌𝐨𝐯𝐞-𝐈𝐧 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐬: Budget for moving costs (up to $2,500 for local moves) and immediate home repairs, upgrades, and furnishings.

Adding a small element or carefully chosen pieces of home decor can go a long way. ✨
