This is where the fun begins. I have been out with clients in the midst of snowstorms, on some of the most beautiful days that end with a swim, and some very early mornings that have begun with coffee. I have never gone on a search with any buyer that has been anything less then fun. The buying experience should be a very relaxing and pleasurable time in your life. Although the search may be pleasurable, it can become very frustrating. Purchasing a home is a long-term commitment and that reality normally sets in around the time of making the offer. Breathe easy and remember that when making a purchase, you are actually making money. All the anxieties normally pass after closing. 

I have a free report that will help you once you have decided to purchase a home. The report entitled, “8 Secrets for saving thousands when buying and financing your next home”, is available to you.  Simply click here for this free report.   

Being a prospective home buyer in the Columbus, Ohio area, you may want to know where to begin the home buying process. You may have questions on whether or not you are eligible for the $8000 tax credit. There are several steps that you can take depending on your level of experience. For first time home-buyers, I have outlined a series of steps to ensure home-buying success and to let you know if you are eligible for the tax credit.

Repeat home-buyers may be more concerned with moving up or down, the value of their home in comparison to the purchase date, and their eligibility of the repeat home buyer $6500 tax credit. While these concerns are important, there are many other things that repeat home-buyers should remain mindful of.
