Things to consider before buying a house.

At first sight, the home you are looking at is so alluring you may forget to consider other very important things before buying.  Some of the first things to consider when you’re buying a home are how much you want to spend, where you’d like to live and what’s important to you as a buyer. Here a few questions to ask yourself:

• How much house can I afford?
• Am I going to take out a loan?
• How much do I have saved for a down payment?
• Can I afford my desired neighborhood?
• Are home values increasing or decreasing in the neighborhood?
• How long will my commute take? 
• Is the school district a fit for my family? 
• Is it within walking distance to amenities and activities?
