First Time Home Buyer Tips

[Account Closed]

Hello!

I am looking to purchase a home by January 2021. I am looking to house hack a SFH or duplex and I haven't started looking yet. Here's my to-do list so far.. can anyone add to this?

1. Get pre-approval letter / shop mortgage rates

2. Find a investor-friendly real estate agent

3. Open houses / drive around the neighborhood

Thanks in advance!

I think attending local meet ups (virtually- now with C-19) is a great way to gain local market knowledge from seasoned professionals. Once we can network again, the meet ups are a great way to hear "war stories" from investors who have a lot of experience. Best of luck!
