Tips for home buyers

Located in the rolling foothills in the southernmost valley of the San Jose metro area, Almaden is an upscale, family-oriented community excellent schools, plenty of recreational opportunities and magnificent views.
Tips for home buyers:
Get pre-approved. Get a letter that says you have already gone through the loan process and are ready to buy any home up to the stated amount on the pre-approval letter.
Ask your
real estate agent to pull up all properties within your range. If you are pre-approved for up to $750,000, ask to see properties up to $800K.This way you will be ready to move fast in case a property drops in price from $800K price range.
Identify neighborhoods you like, and go on a tour with your real estate agent.
Be clear about your window of opportunity. If you are moving because of schools, make sure that you let your realtor know the urgency. If your
realtor knows your motivation, you will both work together as a team better.
Good buys are made on homes that require some cosmetic work. Two similar homes can be priced very differently and all it takes is a little elbow grease.
If you are serious about buying a particular home it is important to price your offer correctly. In a multiple offer situation you should understand that the home may sell far above the asking price.
