Buying a home can be a confusing--if not overwhelming--process.
That's why I have put together a one hour overview of the end-to-end
process and its players, to help clients understand what's going on.
Buyers need to be a part of the process to be confident that they are
making the right decisions!
During this one hour, no-obligation class, we cover:
- An overview of the DC area housing market, including what factors make it a "buyers market" versus a "sellers market." We review historical data and also talk about long term trends that indicate which direction the market will head.
- The home buying process: preparing, searching, pricing, contract negotiation, and settlement.
- Common mistakes and misperceptions of buyers.
- Financing considerations, including how to calculate your tax benefit, loan types, and costs you need to consider besides the mortgage.
- The role of a buyer agent, and how to choose one.
- How to get started, including a simple checklist.
- Questions and answers
Sessions are held periodically at the Arlington Central Library. The next classes are scheduled for 7:30 pm on June 18. To register, contact Katie.
