Becoming a property owner is a major emotional and financial step on many levels.

Buying your own home can be a very positive and defining moment in your life.

2.Drive the neighborhoods and drive around the streets you like watching out for “for sale signs”

Even though this is time consuming it is probably still the best real way to get to know an area.

Maybe you have friends who live in the area and you are going to visit them, or maybe you are in the area for kids sport or for another reason than looking at real estate, but my suggestion is make sure you drive around slowly and keep your eyes out for for sale signs.

It is the best way to figure out where are the busy roads, how close are the shops, where are the schools and to get a genuine feel for an area you need to be there.

Jump out of your car and walk around the neighborhood if you are thinking of spending around the average home price for Fairy Meadow which is close to $500,000 you really want to know the area inside out.

Print media the old dog of real estate promotion, was the main form of promotion in years gone past but is now being overtaken by online promotions.

Many buyers who are just looking rely on newspaper advertising and real estate magazine to keep up to date with new properties.

However i think the serious buyers do more than this, they are actively watching their email inbox and they are driving around Fairy Meadow neighborhoods on the weekend.

General advice on buying real estate in Fairy Meadow

Ultimately the best way to get a feel for the market when looking at real estate is to meet local real estate agents. ( Remember my offer; free cuppa and a chat on 4284 8000)

Also it is a good idea to spread the word amongst your friends, there is a good chance a friend may see something you may have missed, this is particularly the case if they already live in the area you are looking at, so they may see the very thing you’re looking for before you do.

Arranging inspections, inspections should be made at the advertised times or by appointment with the real estate agent.

You need to look at the location and style of the property in relation to your requirements: the size of the property, proximity to the lifestyle features you are after should be considered.

Once you have found a property that suits you, it is wise to check it out during the week as well as on the weekend, as a peaceful environment one day might be quite different at other times.

You should have a property checked out by a builder inspector or architect to assess whether there are any defects that might affect your decision to buy. This is particularly relevant if large-scale renovation or extensions are planned.

When you are ready to make an offer this will take some time, and missing out on a property that you have your heart set on can be a very disappointing experience, but understand it is not uncommon particularly if it is your first home purchase.

This often happens because the offer process is misunderstood. When making an offer to purchase a property, it is important to be aware of the following:

Start with end result in mind. Ask yourself “what do I want” and if appropriate analyze the needs of the seller.

I would suggest to put in a good offer for your first offer. In my experience a lot of buyers want to play the negotiating game well that is okay, but don’t let your offer be too low as you can almost cause offense with the property owners and the chances of them returning to the negotiating table with a reasonable response can be lessened if your first offer is too low.

Also remember an offer is not legally binding on both parties until the buyer and seller have signed a contract, and the contracts have been exchanged.

The property remains on the market while the vendor considers all offers. Just because your offer is the first one submitted, does not necessarily mean that it will be accepted.

A Contract must contain details of the property, the price, deposit and settlement terms. Once the offer is made in writing, it is then up to the vendor whether or not to accept it or whether to give other parties the opportunity to increase their original offers.

The agent is not obliged to give you another opportunity to increase your offer. The vendor is under no obligation until they accept the buyer’s offer by counter-signing the contract.

We wish you well with your buying real estate experience.
