Before buying a house, you should know your budget, the current market value of the type of house you're looking for, the location you're interested in, and the necessary repairs or improvements needed. It is also important to research the neighborhood, any potential safety hazards or issues, and the local real estate tax rates. It is beneficial to have a home inspector look through the property before purchase, and make sure you are fully aware of all the insurance and financing requirements. Additionally, be sure to read through all the sales documents to verify everything is in order.
