Real estate home buying – Conditions to consider

Buying a new house is a cumbersome process and one of the most important financial decisions that you will take in your life. You have to take out a mortgage to buy a new home as it is not possible to provide all the amount of money as down payment. Since your mortgage is a secured loan with your house as collateral, it is very important to make proper payments and pay it back failing which our house will be foreclosed to pay for the loan amount. The best thing to do would be to use a loan mortgage calculator to calculate how much mortgage you would be able to afford. Here are some other considerations that you should make while buying a real estate property.

1. Know the market conditions – It is important that you know about the equivalent properties that are sold for the past six months when compared with yours. If you are working with an agent he can provide you with such information, if not then there are many websites which can give you comparable rates of houses.

2. Decide upon the time horizon – The kind of property you buy and the place where you are buying it can be affected extremely by the time period for which you are taking on the mortgage. If you are planning on staying in the house on a long term basis then the conditions you should consider are of particular type. However, if you are planning on putting the house up for rent to selling it off after living in it for a few years then the considerations you have to make are completely different.

3. Understand and buy within your capacity – It is very important for you to understand the amount of mortgage that you can afford and thus take out that amount only so that you can pay back easily. Buying a home in the expectation that price will go up and there will be an appreciation in your home value can spell disaster for you.

4. Don’t be fooled by appearances – Sellers will always try to project their home in the best possible light. A nicely decorated home can make you happy and you tend to overlook the problems that the house may have such am bad tiles, electrical faults and so on.

Thus you can see how much it is important to consider the above factors to buy a good house for yourself.

October 2009 Is'nt the internet great? It found us this piece of paradise half a world away from home! Spent a wonderful week here exploring the surrounding areas at the end of a two month European holiday. This was a great place to unwind - thanks for the use of the apartment! Guests from the Netherlands - June 2010 We liked our holiday in your appartment very much! We loved the view and the completeness of the apartment, plus it was very convenient being on the ground floor for access to the pools which were a big success with our two kids. Guests from the Netherlands - July 2010 We had a wonderful stay in your apartment for one week and made many trips - to the market on Wednesday by boat and by car to the national park 'Lago Delio'. The swimming pool was great for the kids and the view accross the lake is stunning. The restaurant La Gabella is great and we also ate at Aquadulza restaurant beside Golfo Gabella. We had a lovely week!
