So, let’s start by walking through what you might expect on your journey to purchase property — just click through the icons below.
Deciding to Buy
Investing in real estate is one of life’s biggest financial - and emotional - decisions. No matter if this is your first home or fifteenth, strategy, care and calm confidence are central to every property purchase. Especially in this seller’s market! Understanding if you are really ready to purchase is an important first step.
Why Do You Want To Buy?
To choose the right property, it’s important to know why you want to invest. For instance, do you need more space for a growing family? Are you considering rental properties, house hacking or building your investment portfolio? Would you rather live in a different community, have more space for entertaining, or shorten your commute? Maybe you’re just ready to pay your own mortgage - and not your landlord’s (which is why I ended up buying my first property 17 years ago!). Maybe you want to be a landlord!
Has Your Income Grown?
Did you know that real estate is one of the least risky ways to build equity or obtain a greater return on your initial investment? According to the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission, the Central Ohio area alone is forecast to grow by nearly one million people over the course of the next 25 years, with the majority of housing prices expected to increase in value alongside. If you’ve seen a bump in your earnings, now is a great time to consider looking for your dream home, vacation home, a rental, or other property to expand your investment portfolio.
