I'm thinking of buying a new home. What should I know?

1. You should consider the size and location of your desired home before making an offer.
2. Research the current market conditions in your area, as well as the local real estate trends.
3. Make sure you have enough money saved for a down payment and closing costs.
4. Consider how long you plan to stay in the home and if it's suitable for that length of time.
5. Get pre-approved for a mortgage loan so you can get the best possible terms when you make an offer.
