How to Successfully Buy a Home in Grand Prairie
  • Buying your dream home can be a lot of work, and
    you certainly don't want to go about it without
    as much help as possible.
  • The assistance an expert agent can help you avoid
    a negative real estate experience.
  • Find your dream house faster than ever.
  • Here is some of the most important home buying
    steps to find your Grand Prairie home.

3
Steps To Follow
  • Find a buyer's agent.
  • Prequalification.
  • Don't stop looking until you find the one.
  • Make an offer.
  • Get an appraisal.
  • Obtain your loan.
  • Get a home inspection.
  • Complete the paperwork.
  • Close on your new home.

4
Find A Buyer's Agent
  • Many a home buyer has made the mistake of
    representing themselves in real estate
    transactions, because they were afraid of
    expensive fees.
  • However, all agent fees are paid by the seller,
    not the buyer.
  • It won't cost you any money as the buyer to have
    professional help and representation when you buy
    your home.
  • So definitely don't start the process without a
    certified buyer's agent.

5
Prequalification
  • Sellers and their agents prefer a buyer who is
    preapproved for a mortgage.
  • A quality buyer's agent can refer you to a lender
    to get your preapproval.
  • This will tell you how much you have to spend on
    your new home.

6
Don't Stop Looking Until You Find The One
  • A home is a major investment and you don't want
    to choose one on a time crunch.
  • Make sure to give yourself time to explore your
    options.
  • The right agent will cheerfully show you as many
    homes as you need until you find the right one.

7
Make An Offer
  • When you have found a home you like, you can make
    an offer for it.
  • Your agent will help you determine the right
    number that is fair for both you and the seller.

8
Get An Appraisal
  • A lender won't approve a loan until the home's
    value has been appraised.
  • The appraisal will tell you what the home is
    worth so that you can determine whether you are
    going to pay a fair price.

9
Obtain Your Loan
  • Your lender will ask you for important financial
    information and documentation so that the loan
    can be finalized.
  • Make sure you have everything ready to go to
    expedite the process.
  • An experienced agent can help you determine what
    you may need to complete things quickly and
    efficiently.

10
Get A Home Inspection
  • A home inspection will help you ensure there is
    no damage to the property which will shortly
    become your own.
  • Your agent should be able to refer you to a great
    inspector who will do a thorough job.
  • Any damage found can be negotiated for repairs or
    price reduction as your agent deems appropriate.

11
Complete The Paperwork
  • Real estate paperwork is tedious, but very
    important.
  • Your realtor will ensure that everything is
    properly completed to protect your legal
    interests.
  • Once every line is filled, you will be ready to
    close.

12
Close On Your New Home
  • Your agent will help you put your final payment
    through, and the title will be recorded.
  • Once the new title is on record, the home is
    officially yours. Change the locks and celebrate.
  • Buying a home can be a lengthy and complicated
    process.
  • You don't want to do it alone, and expert
    assistance doesn't cost you a penny.
