TIPSBuying a home requires a lotof thought…and action!When it comes time to buy a home, most people already have a pretty good idea of the type of residence they’re looking for, such as a single-family unit, a duplex or a multiple-unit dwelling. Chances are they also have a good idea of their price range.

Buying a home can be much easier with a bit of planning and by taking a closer look at your specifi c needs. For example, what are the municipal taxes for the area and what services are available?

Here Are Some Steps To Get You Started:

1. Keep track of your credit report2. Prepare for your home purchase3. Develop a budget4. Get your fi nancial picture into focus5. Find ways to start saving now6. Learn common real estate terminology7. Learn about mortgage qualifi cations8. Get mortgage offer comparisons9. Compare housing types10. Check listings & prices online

Finding and choosing a real estate agent is another smart move. These professionals will dedicate their time and effort to fi nding the exact type of home that you’re looking for. By having a realtor do all the preliminary legwork for you, you won’t spend valuable time visiting properties that don’t suit your needs.

But real estate agents aren’t mind readers. That means you should be able to provide your realtor with as much information as possible. When you fi rst sit down with him or her, outline your requirements: the type of neighbourhood you’re looking for, the approximate lot size, as well as the type of home and the number of rooms. Also, make sure to mention any other important features that you’re looking for such as a specifi c heating or ventilation system. All this information will help you narrow down the search to those homes that can meet your needs.

Once you’ve decided on a particular property, your realtor will submit a purchase bid to the owner or developer (in the case of a new building). This bid may be conditional, such as requesting that certain elements be left in the home, such as the dishwasher, vertical blinds or decorative items.

The Vancouver Island Real Estate Board (VIREB) represents over 900 REALTORS and administers the Multiple Listing Service® system north of the Malahat to the northern-most reaches of the Island. This article was provided on behalf of VIREB REALTORS for the information and benefit of consumers. For more information, visit the Vancouver Island Real Estate Board’s website online at www.vireb.com or call 250-390-4212.

Choosing The REALTOR® Who’s Right For You.If you’re selling or buying a home, you know it’s a process that can’t be rushed. You need time to make the right choices and decisions. After all, selling or buying a home is one of the largest and most important business transactions in which you’re likely to be involved.

As a result, you’ll need to work with someone who understands your needs and wants -- someone you trust and with whom you feel comfortable. That’s why it’s important to work with a REALTOR® and to know how to go about choosing the one who’s right for you.

By defi nition, a REALTOR®’s primary role is to bring buyers and sellers together to facilitate a sale. A REALTOR® is a licensed real estate professional who is a member of the Vancouver Island Real Estate Board and therefore has access to the Multiple Listing Service ® (MLS®) run by the Board.

Both terms, REALTOR® and MLS® are trademarks owned by The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA). Members of the local Board are also members of CREA and therefore are permitted to use these trademarks.

When you work with a REALTOR® you can expect strict adherence to provincial law, as well as to a national Code of Ethics -- ensuring you’ll receive the highest level of service and integrity.

Real estate professionals know their markets inside-out because they inspect open houses and research all listings. As a result, they have expertise in assessing what comparable homes are selling for within any given neighbourhood.

HOW DO I FIND A REALTOR®?

There are many ways to go about fi nding the REALTOR® who’s right for you. First, try consulting friends, relatives and neighbours to see if they can recommend someone. You may also want to try searching through local newspaper real estate advertisements.

‘Open Houses’ are also a good way to meet REALTORS, especially if you’re interested in purchasing a home.

You can also refer to real estate signs in your chosen area. If no name appears, call the phone number on the sign and ask to be referred to a REALTOR® in that fi rm.

Some people mistakenly contact the real estate board for referral to a REALTOR®. A real estate board does not provide a referral service for REALTORS. The Board was created to provide services to its members. Still, the Board will confi rm whether a real estate practitioner is a member, and therefore a REALTOR®.

THE INTERVIEW

When choosing a real estate professional, it’s a good idea to talk to two or three sales representatives from different companies to determine what types of information and experience they and their companies have to offer. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. If you’re selling your home, ask those you interview about the type of marketing plan they have in mind for your home.

Obviously, you’ll want to learn of their reputation and reliability. You may also want to consider asking for references from buyers or sellers with whom the REALTOR® has worked.

Further, since you’ll be working closely with a REALTOR® for weeks or possibly months, it’s a good idea to choose someone who listens to what you say, asks intelligent questions and shows a genuine interest in helping you.

PREPARATORY WORK

Keep in mind that REALTORS cannot work independently of your input. You must be willing to do some preparatory work yourself and be prepared to dedicate a certain amount of time to working with the REALTOR® you have chosen.

So, before you enlist the help of a REALTOR®, you should have a clear set of objectives in mind. Be honest and open in discussing your fi nancial situation and, if you’re buying, carefully review the features you absolutely must have in a home, versus those features you’d merely like to have.

LOYALTY IS A MUST

It’s also important to remain loyal to the REALTOR® you’ve chosen if he or she has earned your trust. This person will be spending a lot of time and effort on your behalf, but won’t be paid until the transaction is completed.

If you’re a buyer, getting involved with several REALTORS can create unnecessary and confusing duplication of effort. In fact, buyers who deal with several REALTORS may miss out on the high level of interest and comprehensive service one is entitled to expect by working closely with a single, competent REALTOR®.

COOPERATION REALLY WORKS

Remember, although you’ll be working with one REALTOR®, members of the Board cooperate extensively with each other to facilitate showings and sales for the benefi t of other clients and customers.

So, if you see a ‘For Sale’ sign on a house in which you’re interested, simply ask the REALTOR® you’re working with to arrange an appointment to view the home.

WHAT’S INCLUDEDIN A HOME INSPECTION?

A home inspector will go through the property and perform a comprehensive visual

inspection. A typical inspection includes an examination of the structure from top

to bottom, including the heating, air conditioning systems, the interior plumbing and

electrical systems, the roof and visible insulation, walls, ceilings, fl oors, windows

and doors, the foundation, basement and visible structure.

If you can spare the time, it’s a good idea to accompany the inspector during the

process. This can give you an opportunity to learn about any problems fi rst-hand and

become more familiar with your new house at the same time. The inspector may also

be able to share some valuable maintenance tips with you during the inspection.

Following the examination, the inspector will provide a report that not only points

out possible defects or areas of concern, but also the positive aspects of the structure

as well as the type of maintenance that will be necessary to keep the home in good

shape. The home inspector should be willing to answer any questions you have as

well as clarify any limitations of the inspection to avoid misunderstandings. Avoid

fi rms that issue only a verbal report. The report should be more than just a checklist

of items inspected. The home inspector should also issue a written report with ac-

curate cost estimates for any major defects discovered during the inspection.

A professional assessment will provide complete information about the condition of

the property you are considering and will help avoid any unpleasant surprises after

the sale. In addition, a home inspector can remain totally objective, while you as the

prospective homebuyer may be emotionally involved.

A home inspection usually lasts about three hours. The inspection fee for a typical

single-family house can vary depending upon the geographic area. The particular

features of the home such as size, age and special structures will also be taken into

consideration.
