GET PRE-APPROVED
"Shop around for the best mortgage rate and get pre-
approved," says Cunningham. "It saves you stress and
time when you're going to put an offer in."
It's also appealing to the seller, especially if there are
multiple offers on the table. Rather than waiting for a
financing condition to be lifted, the seller knows you
already have financing in place.
How do you know you're getting the best rate? Some
people choose to go with a mortgage broker, who shops
around for you, while others will visit a few lending
institutions to compare what they have to offer.
CHOOSE WISELY
Now for the fun part. With financing in place, you
can start looking for a home that fits within your
means. A realtor can help with the search, while a
real estate lawyer will protect your interests as you
close the deal.
"Buying a home is most likely the largest single
purchase anyone will make," Cunningham says.
"It's not something you walk into lightly."
