Chapter 1
Getting Ready to Purchase a Home
Many people think that all they have to do
to purchase a home is find one that they like, obtain a loan, and move in. Unfortunately, this is not how the home buying process actually works. There are many things that you have to do before you even set foot into an open house.
To Buy or Lease a Home
It is not always an easy decision when it comes to purchasing a home, you have to know exactly what you want or need before you decide to make an investment. It does not matter what is going on in the market, you will always have an option when it comes to purchasing or selling your home.
If you want to get into the real estate market, but you are not ready to make the big leap and purchase a home, you could always lease a home instead. In fact, this is a good step for many people who are not quite ready to purchase a home. One benefit is that you will have lower payments when you lease. You will also be able to build up your credit and increase your credit score. Many homes that are for lease will give you the option of purchasing them after a certain amount of time. This will allow you to live on the property for a while and decide if you like it before you purchase it.
Leasing can also be a great option if you are trying to sell your home. You may find that you are having trouble selling your home and you do not want to have to pay double mortgages. Leasing your home is one option that will prevent you from having to make two mortgage payments every month. If you decide to lease your home, you will become the landlord for a period of time that will be determined by the contract that is signed by both you and the tenants that states all of the terms, conditions, and how much the tenants will have to pay each month. After the contract ends, the tenant will have the option to purchase the property from you.
It does not matter if you are trying to sell your home or if you are looking to get in the real estate market without having to purchase a home, leasing a home can be a great option no matter what your situation may be.
