Whether searching for a single-family home, multi-family home, condo, townhouse, or something else, getting a pre-approved mortgage is an excellent first step. This step allows you to cement your budget for home buying, so you’re not left wondering if you can afford your ideal home or how much the banks will loan you. As a bonus, having a pre-approved mortgage lets sellers know you’re a serious buyer.
After being pre-approved, I suggest taking a look at the different communities and neighborhoods throughout the city. Lake Havasu City has a vast amount of communities all with different types of amenities. Once you have narrowed down both what is affordable and where you would like to lay down your roots I can narrow the search for you. Having a smaller size to search means you won’t be wasting time looking at properties you aren’t interested in. This is an essential step in the process. While deciding on top locations, keep items in mind such as schools, safety, proximity to shops, launch ramps, etc.
I encourage you to just start with a property even if it isn’t your first choice. It’s always great to start somewhere and you will get a feel for the area. This will help you further narrow down the neighborhoods/areas of interest.
When house hunting, it’s necessary to note which are must-haves for your future home, whether that’s a large open kitchen, a pool in the backyard, or a certain number of bedrooms and bathrooms. By narrowing down your must-haves, and wants, you’ll be clearer on what you’re looking for. Otherwise, the house hunt can become confusing and overwhelming. It’s helpful also to list features or amenities that are nice but not needed, as well as deal breakers.
With the previous tip’s list of features and amenities, we can update your property alerts to better fit your ideal homes in your desired location or neighborhood. It is always best to weed out the listings that don’t meet your needs. The goal is to keep a small list of homes you want to view instead of an unmaintainable list.
