Homes~Land ISLANDER
Whidbey Island
Buying a first home is one of the biggest decisions a person
will make during their lifetime. It is a process that needs to be
followed with careful planning and consideration, never rushed.
Find out everything you can on the subject of mortgages and
home-buying. For example, you should know that having a mortgage
doesnt always cost less than renting because a home owner must take
into account both recurring and one-time expenses, such as
municipal and school taxes, maintenance costs, property transfer
duties, and legal costs.
If you have done your homework and decided to become a home
owner, the next step is to consult a representative at your
financial institution. Once you are clear about your assets and
liabilities, you
will be able to estimate an acceptable debt level. This should
not exceed 40 percent of your gross revenue, including all your
existing debts.
DOWN PAYMENTIn the past it was possible to borrow for a down
payment, with a credit card, for example. This is no longer
possible. That means you need to have accumulated some savings
before getting into this type of acquisition. If you have an RRSP,
it is possible to use that for your down payment through the
federal governments Home Buyers Plan (HBP).
HOME INSPECTIONYouve found the house of your dreams, but be
careful! Following through with a decision to buy based solely on
your feelings isnt the best way to purchase a home. Have the
house
inspected before making an offer to buy, because if your offer
is accepted you will be obligated to follow through with the
transaction. Obviously it is to your advantage to work with a real
estate agent who is subject to real estate law. He or she works for
you and will be able to answer any of your questions concerning
your purchase.
