Pick the neighborhood first

Tom Blakeman | Blakeman Properties, Houston


All too often homeseekers get so excited when they find out about a home with a great price, special financing, or unique features, the contract gets written before anyone stops to think.

Many times what they have found is not a good deal at all. There is a reason why a deal sounds too good to be true. That reason is usually location.

Buying a home in the wrong location can cause a lot of problems in the long run. The best approach is to:

  • Know your budget (get pre-approved).
  • Choose a desirable area that is within your budget.
  • Then pick the best home available.

You'll be happier in the end if you plan well in the beginning.
