Real Estate Professionals Reveal the Biggest Mistakes Buyers Make on Homes.org
Austin, TX (PRWEB) November 17, 2011
Homes.org recently released a list of the biggest mistakes that home buyers make according to real estate professionals that work to close deals across the country every day. “In the 15 years I have been selling real estate I would say that the biggest mistakes most buyers make results from inexperience,” said Chris Howell, Broker at REMAX Olympic in Haymarket, VA. ” First-time home buyers will obviously make the biggest number of mistakes as they don’t exactly know what they need, they shop only for what they want. The experienced home buyer will know what is really important to them. The best advice is to find a real estate professional that has not only guided clients through all types of decisions but has also gone through these processes themselves.”
The professionals interviewed by Homes.org provided in-depth insight as to what the most common buying mistakes are, how buyers can avoid them and how to fix problems if a mistake has already been made.
Top 10 Mistakes That Home Buyers Make
Based on feedback from real estate professionals actively working around the country, Homes.org created the list below which outlines the most common and costly mistakes that home buyers make during the buying process.
Not Getting Pre-Approved for a Loan
Not Using a Qualified Agent
Not Getting a Thorough Inspection
Focusing on Wants Instead of Needs
Buying Based on Emotions
Not Reading & Understanding Contracts Thoroughly
Buying at the Top of Their Price Range
