BE FINANCIALLY HEALTHY SAVE MONEY! How Do I Make a Financially Healthy Decision When Purchasing My Home?
1. Define housing NEEDS. Minimize WANTS.
2. Make a budget. Look at income. What percent do you want to spend on housing?
3. How long will I be in this home? Is it a “starter” home or a “for the years” home?
4. Check your credit. Go to annualcreditreport.com.
5. Talk to a mortgage professional.
How Do I Make a Financially Healthy Decision When I Sell My Home?
1. Defend the value of your property. Find comparative property prices and do not sell for less.
2. Make simple improvements like cleaning, removing clutter and adding a fresh coat of paint as opposed to adding granite countertops and new flooring. Fresh and clean sells well.
