Buying a property

 Points for Buying a New San Antonio Home
 
 Keeping the following points in mind will ensure you cover everything while buying a new home for your family.
 
 1. Do your research
 Apart from visiting reputable mortgage brokers and lenders individually – start taking note of property and mortgage related information sources.
 
 2. Visit some home loan calculators online
 There are plenty of home loan calculators on the Internet. These will give you an idea of how much your income, assets and liabilities will allow you to borrow, as well as what the repayments will be on a particular home loan amount.
 
 3. Write up a budget
 If you don’t already have a budget plan in place, create one! If you can follow a budget for a year-long period or more, tweaking it long the way, you’ll have a strong idea of what money you need to put aside for things that pop up regularly.
 
 4. Determine if you are eligible for the Home Buyer Tax Credit
 You may be eligible for the government’s Home Buyer Tax Credit. There could also be some other concessions available on top of the credit.
 
 5. Think about concessions and other costs involved
 You may know how much you can afford, but have you considered the new car you’ll need in a year’s time, new or replacement furniture or that overseas trip you’ve been thinking as being two years down the track? When you’re committing your money to a mortgage, you’re committing your lifestyle to a mortgage, too.
 
 6. Consider suitable loan types
 Many people are not aware that there are many different types of mortgages. Everything from family equity loans to paying off a loan with a friend rather than by yourself can bring property ownership closer than you may think.
 
 7. Determine your property picture
 Once you have a better idea of the loan type, repayments and loan amount, you can start looking in areas and different types of homes that you you can afford.
 
 8. Consider a pre-approval
 Consider a loan pre-approval before going on the serious hunt for a place to buy. These are normally valid for three months at a time, with a possibility of extension.
