How do I make sure I get the most for my money when buying a house?

Make sure to shop around and compare prices. 2 Research the neighborhood you're considering and see if it's in a good school district. 3 Get an estimate of what repairs are needed before you buy, such as roofing or plumbing. 4 Have your own home inspector look over the property and give you an estimate of any potential issues that could arise. 5 Negotiate with the seller to get the best deal on the house. 6 Ask friends and family who have recently purchased homes for advice about getting the best value.
