5 Why Buy a Home? You want to settle down You ve got a family, and need room to grow You want creative control You re handy, and ready to invest your time You ve saved up a down payment You want the tax savings
6 Why You Shouldn t Buy a Home You don t have a good reason Family Schools You can t afford a 10% - 20% down payment You can rent for much less You plan on moving soon Three years minimum Seven years is ideal You re worried about job security Renting allows you to move where jobs are Renting allows you to down-size more easily The most common real estate mistake is viewing a house first as a financial investment and only second as a home.

20 Finding Redfin s Forums
21 Mortgages: What Can You Afford?
22 You Need a Loan More importantly, you ll need to find someone willing to lend you money. Assuming you ve got good credit (>740), and can come up with a decent down payment (10-20%), we ll go over the standard loan process.
23 Organize Your Assets Get ready for the down payment Cash accounts (liquid funds) 401(k), stocks, other investments Gift funds? (Max. allowed varies) Move funds around before you start shopping
24 Review Your Debt Pull credit report, look for errors Figure out how much monthly income goes towards paying off debt: 28 33% healthy Pay down balances to 1/3 rd of credit available Don t open any new lines of credit Don t buy any big ticket items Co-borrower will need to do the same
25 Get Paperwork Ready Gather documentation (you & co-borrower Last two paystubs Last two years W-2s (tax returns if selfemployed) Bank statements (last 60 days) Copy of driver s license Employer information Residence history PDF everything so you re prepared, avoid delays
26 Get Pre-Approved Establishes your price ranges & shows you re serious Information needed: W-2, two pay-stubs, tax returns (get them ready), bank statements Time required: 30 minutes Duration: 90 days, depending on lender Ask for a few different amounts Redfin asks that you get pre-approved before your third tour
27 Start Shopping for Loans Banks & credit unions: Mainstream loans (20% Conventional, FHA) Brokers: More options, rate shopping ( niche loans) Mortgage bankers: Lend their own money (flexibility)
28 Compare Results Gather good faith estimates (loan quotes) A minimum of three, more is better Compare similar loans Program (FHA, conventional) Timeframe (same day) Compare costs side-by-side Discount & origination points Interest rates APR (interest rates + fees + points + PMI) Insurance premiums (FHA, PMI) Ask what fees may change

Get keys and take possession! Receive Redfin refund Complete Redfin survey
46 Short-Sales and Bank Owned Properties
47 What is a Short Sale? A home where the owner owes more on the mortgage than the home is worth Usually pre-foreclosure, but not always Listed for less than what s owed to the bank. Requires 1-2 banks approval (usually 2) May have other liens (taxes, utilities, HOA) on the home
48 Redfin Can Help You With A Short Sale Tour short sales with Redfin If you want to buy, we refer you to a short sale specialist partner agent* Get a 15% commission rebate *Did you know: Redfin partner agents work for other brokerages but share our commitment to customer service
49 What is a Bank-Owned Property? Auction fails Bank owns, markets property via broker, MLS Standard sale but: Verbal negotiations Long response times Repairs unlikely Legal addenda may require an attorney Limited or no disclosures Also known as Real Estate Owned (REO)
50 REO Quirkiness Long response times Banks put seller-friendly clauses into contracts Banks, brokers and attorneys not accommodating Property purchased As-Is Closings often don t happen as planned A major hassle!
51 What About Auctions? Cash buyers only Dates are posted in small publications Dress warm, auctions are on the courthouse steps Bidding starts at what the bank owes Be prepared, homes move fast You can t count on getting a good deal You re on your own
52 Cut to the Chase: Where s the Best Deal? REOs & short-sales often aren t the best deal: Banks are stingy Not a fire sale Your best bet for a good deal: Sellers who own their home outright Sellers who are relocating Estate sales
53 So What Now Make sure it s the right time to buy Research market pricing conditions Get pre-approved & start shopping for mortgages Search for homes & get out on tours Find the right agent Make an offer & close the deal

68 Search for Homes Sold (zip code or neighborhood)
69 Download Results
70 Filter Out Stuff You Don t Need Delete sale type, home type, city, state
71 Sort Based on Your Criteria Remember: Square feet: 1,740 3 Beds/1.75 baths Year built: 1927 Craftsman
72 Throw Out Outliers Remember: Square feet range: 1,450 2,000 3 Beds/1.75 baths Year built: 1927
73 Scrutinize the Leftovers Use the links from your download Focus on 2-3 solid comparables Use Google street view when available Consider neighboring homes Street type: arterial Always drive by your final selections
74 Determine a Final Price Range Found two solid comparables Price range: $399,950 - $440,000 Asking price: $497,500 (higher than the range) Identify Unique Attributes Remodeled View Finished basement Quality landscaping
75 Next Step: Active Listings Find out what s on the market (competition) Run a CMA on active listings Select a few comparables: Are they similarly priced? What s the price range? Drive by to confirm details, attend open house Review Pending Sales Ask your agent to pull comparable pending sales, photos Establish a final range for homes sold in the last month Use this as a final gut check for your offer price
76 Ask Your Agent How much depreciation has taken place since the sale of your comps? Finally, Compare Results Establish a final range Consult your agent for specifics Adjust the range for unique attributes Submit an offer
77 Do I make an offer now, or wait? General Rule of Thumb (this ain t gospel) Does it meet the criteria of most of the seven tells? How far below list price are you? 0%-6% : Green Light 7%-12% : Use Discretion 13%-15% : Stop and Evaluate Weigh the Pro s and Con s The price could reduce on it s own (no offers) There s a higher chance of success (days on market) Interest rates could change (up or down) Another party could make an offer (you lose the home) You could jeopardize future negotiations by low balling
