Are you ready to learn what to do when you're preparing home comparisons in the competitive local real estate market?
Appreciate that there’s no “best choice of” time to pick up a 1-bedroom 1-baths dwelling in 22307.
If you find the most suitable home today, you don't want to miss out because you think you can predict what the future will be in the Fairfax County housing market. Factors like market price and interest rate usually don’t change fast enough to make a difference in an individual garden-style condo’s price. Much more important than macro-economic factors, is the actual garden-style condos you're looking at. That's because, every property is unique. So, a home for sale today, might not be available when the market changes.
Trust yourself.
It’s natural to want reassurance for such a big decision, but too many comments can make it hard to hear your own thoughts. Focus on the wants and needs of the people who will actually be living in the home.
There is no such thing as a perfect purchase in Alexandria.
There are many examples of compromises that buyers have to make every day. Consider a few of these possibilities. Maybe it's picture perfect, but with a price that is painful.It's close to the Beltway, but far from your work. Organize your needs and wants, then we'll focus in on YOUR home ownership goals.
Don't expect that to negotiate too much in 22307.
Negotiation is definitely a part of the real estate process, but trying to “win” by getting an extra-low price or refusing to budge may cost you the home you love.If you pay too much, relax. I'll put an appraisal contingency in that will allow you to kick-out of the deal at no penalty if the home sales price is too high.
Remember your home's value is wrapped up in it's location.
Don’t get so caught up in the physical aspects of the house itself that you forget about important issues such as:
- community activities
- convenience
- parks
Prepare in advance.
Before you shop there are some tasks to take care of. Don’t wait until you’ve found a home to:
- investigate insurance
- to get approved for a mortgage
- learn more about home inspections
- think about title companies
