The Advantages of being a first-time homebuyer
Whether it is your first time buying a property or not, the buying process is a big and exciting move.
Believe it or not, there are some perks to being a first-time homebuyer in Florida! These come in the form of special financial assistance programs (both state and federal) and tax breaks.
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) specifically defines first-time buyers. We can help you determine if you are eligible to apply for these programs.
First Steps
Things to consider
1. Finances
While the down payment will be your biggest initial expense, there are other costs that you need to plan for. These may include:
- Initial deposit to your escrow account
- Appraisal and inspection fees
- Survey charge
- Title insurance
- State and federal fees and taxes
2. Plan ahead
Look at the house’s total cost, including property taxes, homeowner’s association fees, and expected maintenance costs, to figure out how much you can actually afford to spend. Keep a few months’ worth of mortgage payments in a separate account in case of an emergency, and start saving money for the inevitable unexpected expenses such as replacing a roof or water heater.
3. Dream “medium”
Consider buying a house in the moderate price range for its neighborhood. This way, your home has room to grow in value. If you buy a house that’s already at the top, it may not rise in value as much as a lower-priced house with improvement potential. The money you save can be used to remodel your home the way you like.
