How Much Can You Borrow?
The first thing you'll want to do on your journey to buy a new home in Northern Virginia is speak to a lender or mortgage broker to determine how much you can afford. They can help determine which type of home loan fits your needs and better assess your financial situation.
Scout Locations
Next up, take a tour of your neighborhood or those you would like to live in. It's all about location when it comes to buying a new home and when you decide where you'd like to be, you can narrow down homes in your search. Knowing what you want in a neighborhood can help your real estate agent pick the best properties for you too.
Start Your Home Search Online
Once you've narrowed down your budget and your location, begin your search for homes in Northern Virginia online. My home search tool can help you find the best properties in Northern Virginia, categorizing them by price, size, and location. "Early in the stages of looking for a home, online is a great place to start. You get a good general sense," said one real estate insider. However, always go through your real estate agent with questions and concerns— the internet can have some disconnect in terms of local real estate information.
