House Hunting
Finding
a new home is not as easy as searching the newspapers and homes magazines
and looking through ads. Here is another place your agent should be
a valuable recourse. He or she should know the market and make you aware
of new offerings long before they are advertised in the paper. In a
strong market, by the time an ad reaches the newsstand, the property
is no longer available. Your agent will scan the Multi-List System (MLS)
on a regular basis searching for homes meeting your needs. In addition,
an experienced agent will have created a personal database of prospective
sellers that he or she can call upon on your behalf. In this way you
will be assured of a vast pool of prospective new homes. In addition,
your agent should be abreast of the new homes being offered in the area
to allow you the option of building a new home. As you view potential
properties, complete the following worksheet.
