5 Most Common Mistakes Made By First Time Home Buyers

First time buyers typically don’t:
- Ask enough questions of their lender and end up missing out on the best deal.
- Act quickly enough to make a decision and someone else buys the house.
- Find the right agent who’s willing to shepherd them through the home buying process.
- Do enough to make their offer look appealing to a seller.
- Think about resale before they buy. The average first-time buyer only stays in a home for four years.
It is best to hire a Realtor, a licensed professional who specializes in buyer representation to act on your behalf. Unlike a listing agent, whose first duty is to the seller, a buyer’s representative is working only for you. Buyer’s reps are typically paid out of the proceeds of the sale, as part of the seller’s commission due and payable to listing agent upon sale.
