How are you going to find your dream home?
Historic Vallejo is a segmented market. There are homes of many sizes and shapes and even multi-unit properties.
Even first-time buyers can purchase 2, 3, or 4 unit buildings. Ask us how.
With all those choices, it is easy to feel anxious
A part of our job is to help take away the anxiety. How do we do it? It is simple. It’s a two-step process.
The first step is to discover what you need and want in a home by comparing the homes you like. Download this simple organizer to view the pros and cons of each home in one place.
After you look at a few homes, you’ll get new ideas and probably start noticing that some of your pros and cons are more important than others.
This is why the second step is to use a Targeting Worksheet to help you understand what you need and want in more detail.
Once you know what you are searching for, it is easier to find.
The way to narrow your target
Your target will include many searchable elements: neighborhood, size, price, or the number of bedrooms and bathrooms.
It will also include your specific needs, like a home office, a nice view, or a big yard for your kids.
Another critical part of targeting is to make sure you’re only looking at homes within your price range.
You can search for a home with confidence once you’ve estimated how much money you will need up front to buy a home. Download this simple worksheet to understand your three biggest expenses.
It’s also necessary to know how much you can borrow, and how much you will have to pay per month. You can get an accurate and reliable number by getting pre-approved. Click here to start the process. This number will give you exceptional clarity about your target.
