5 Practical Tips to Get your Dream House

For a country where owning a home is not easy, every first time home buyer is understood to be skeptical about making decisions. I have seen a lot of families fall into the trap of making wrong decisions and ending up not satisfied about their purchase that's why it is important that you have a clear vision of what you want... Visualize your dream house and lot! 

Buying a home is both a big investment and a long time commitment so this decision can never go wrong.  Here's an additional real estate tips for those who are in the process of searching or buying their home. Do not be lost along the way; this list is here to guide you. 

Draw your dream. This can mean literally or figuratively. Put specifics into your dream house. Write down how many storeys, how many rooms, would you like to have a little garden outside? Do you want a carport? These are the things that you would like to see in your future home. With so many options available in the market, I am pretty confident that you’ll find an offer that will suit your needs. 

A vision board of different house models and properties can also be a big help. You use the flyers given to you or you can also come-up with a digital version so that you always see it. Like in my case, I particularly love the house models in South Forbes so I put it in my vision board. 

I particularly like the design of this clubhouse in one of their themed community so I included it in my dream board together with other house models that I loved.

Chase your dream. You know I never thought that my house hopper adventures will open my eyes to bigger dreams... for a while I was already contented of what I have and I'm secured of having my own house and lot in the province but now I'm chasing my bigger dreams. My regular site trips let me explore more options, take more inspirations and ask more questions.

I think in your search for your dream house, it is important that you make as many inquiries as you can. Embark on as many site tripping’s as you can, they are for free. Go the extra mile; after all, it is your dream house that we are talking about here. Explore as many options as you can. Different developers will offer you different types of houses in various prices. Do not be afraid to ask questions so that you would know if a certain house unit will fit your needs.

Work for your dream. We all know why we call owning a house, a-dream-come-true to everyone, because it is expensive. It has a price we need to pay for. We calculate, we budget and we deal with financial sacrifice. We have to make sure it is all worth it. You can find a suitable house for you in an affordable price. Assure that it is within your budget range. 

Don't forget to read my previous blog posts for affordable house and lot properties which you might want to consider.

Make your dream a reality.  Even though it is a dream house, your aspirations of it should still be realistic. Set an achievable time table for your plan. Set deadlines for processing of papers, set realistic bank dues to avoid penalties. Always consider bank holidays’ timeframe. If you are going to set your monthly amortization date, make it at least 2 or 3 days after your monthly salary date, so you will have allowance days in case there is a delay in your income. 
Keep your dream alive.  Let us say you have achieved your goal of finding your dream home. You were approved for a housing loan and everything else in process went smooth. A housing loan is a long term commitment. Do not forget to pay your dues on time and be responsible enough to keep your monthly payment updated. Remember that even though you have already been approved for a housing loan, you can still be penalized or worse get your property foreclosed.
