Home Buying Checklist - New Article

We've just posted a new article to the checklist section of the main website. This new article outlines seven specific actions a first-time home buyer should take ... before they even begin shopping for a home.

We felt this type of article was necessary, because many first-time home buyers mistakenly believe that the buying process starts when they begin house hunting. In reality, the process should begin long before this. You need to have your financial "house" in order before you begin shopping for a new home.

For example, here are some of the prescribed steps in the new article:

1. Learn the home buying steps
2. Review your debt-to-income ratio.
3. Set your home buying budget.
4. Start saving your cash.
5. Review your credit report.
6. Fix credit errors quickly.
7. Get pre-approved for a loan.
